Hi,

I previously posted here (and in technet forums as "lolix2". For some reason that Microsoft account linked to my professional email address was changed (why ??). (my email is the same)
I changed my alias to "lolix3".
Yet my post appears as my fullname followed by an hyphen and a number (as you can see with this very post)..

    Hi @lolix3 • Thank you for reaching out.

    I am suspecting that your corporate account got linked to your Q&A profile due to single sign on via browser cookies or Primary Refresh Token on your corporate device.

    To remove your corporate account from your Q&A profile, sign-in with your personal account and go to your profile settings. Under Account Management section, click on remove next to your corporate account as highlighted below:
