Old school is somehow linked to Microsoft Account?

Question

The old school I went to 4 years ago is still somehow connected to my Microsoft account. That school account isn't shown in settings<account<access work or school. It's only ever shown when I click on the windows key (sorry i don't know how to describe it better). I already went through my account settings,etc. but couldn't find the school anywhere. I did use this account back in 2020 with Teams, maybe that's how it's connected. I just want to get rid of the school name since it's annoying me. Thank you for your help

Can you right click on Windows start and choose Terminal (admin), then run this code:

Get-ItemProperty -Path "C:\Users\AppData\Local\Packages" | ForEach-Object { Remove-Item -Path "$_\Microsoft.AAD.BrokerPlugin*" -Recurse -Force | Out-Null }

==================

Next, type contro panel in the search on the taskbar to launch it, then go to Credential Manager > Windows credential tab, look for anything referencing the organization account, right click and delete all that is found.

===============

Hold down Windows + R keys, copy and paste the following path into the run box (one at a time please), and press enter to launch the folder. When it is launched, delete everything in the folder. If you run into any sub folder that will not allow you to delete, go into that sub folder, and delete from within.

%LocalAppData%\Packages\MSTeams_8wekyb3d8bbwe

%LocalAppData%\Packages\Microsoft.AAD.BrokerPlugin_cw5n1h2txyewy

%LocalAppData%\Microsoft\OneAuth

%LocalAppData%\Microsoft\TokenBroker

%LocalAppData%\Microsoft\IdentityCache  

========================= Restart the computer after that.

Then check to see if the organization account is now gone.
