I am trying to unlink my personal email from my work computer's Microsoft Edge. I cannot do it. Here are the things I did:

I removed my email account from computer setting (Windows+I).

Removed the profile and cleared cookies.

Tried changing password of personal email.

Tried changing email name (personal).

After all this, I can automatically login from microsoft edge without any passwords. And now, it finds the changed email name and links to Microsoft edge profile. It is a frustrating experience. Please Help.

    Hi @Manohar Upreti,

    I removed my email account from computer setting (Windows+I).

    What part of the email in the system settings did you delete? I tried these steps below and it works fine.

    1. Stop signing in to all Microsoft apps automatically. User's image
    2. Remove Email in Accounts used by other apps section. User's image

    Please let me know if this work for you.

    Best regards,

    Xudong Peng
