I have a local account called 'user'.

I gave another person laptop to do some work and they logged into their microsoft account in Edge.

Now their Ms account has tied itself to my local account

Is there any way to untie and remove any traces of Ms account?

"manage" leads to login in Edge - I fear if I ask the person to login again it will take over something more.

Email & accounts view

A view from another local user - clearly still a local account, but the picture is from Ms account Other users view

I found a question about same situation in win8 & win10 and there was a "disconnect" button. Disconnect Microsoft account from my local account But cannot find such option in Windows 11

The MS account user logged in their account and removed my laptop from a list of connected computers. After restart the MS account dissapeared from my Email & accounts view.

Thank you @Ramhound for the suggestion.

Accounts > Email & Accounts is not the settings page for removing/disconnecting a Windows 11 "Work or School" account.

You want to use Accounts > Access work or school settings page instead,
and click the Disconnect button for the account you want to remove.

An easy way to get to the correct settings page is

  • Windows key
  • type "school" into the search
  • click "Access work or school - System Settings"
