This summer, my daughter was home. She needed to update her resume for some auditions, so she used my computer. Once she was on my computer, in my account, she logged onto her school account (with school OneDrive, etc.). No problem.

Now she's back at school for her final semester. And I'm tired of seeing her account as well as my personal OneDrive account. So I go to the Email & app accounts screen in the control panel. My daughter's account is listed, and when I click on it, a Manage button shows up. (It also says that Microsoft apps can sign me in, which makes sense because her Resume is a Word file.)

The problem is when I click the Manage button. It opens up Edge, but not to any sort of account management screen. Instead, it opens it up to MSN | Outlook, Office, Skype, Bing, Breaking News, and Latest Videos, which looks like the generic Edge homepage.

How the heck can I delete my daughter's school account from my Microsoft account? Buying a new computer might work, except I suspect that the accounts are maintained by Microsoft, and will follow me from computer to computer.
 


Solution
Depends how she was using the account.
  • Under system settings [Windows key + i]
  • Accounts
If she signed into an application it will be under "Email and App Accounts"
If she connected to a school resource then it will be under "Access work or school"
