Steps to Remove a Microsoft Account in Windows 11:
1. Sign In with a Local Account (Optional)
You cannot remove the Microsoft account you’re currently signed into.
To switch to a local account:
Open Settings by pressing Windows + I.
Go to Accounts Your Info.
Click Sign in with a local account instead and follow the on-screen instructions.
2. Open Account Settings
Open Settings by pressing Windows + I.
Navigate to Accounts Family & Other Users.
3. Select the Microsoft Account to Remove
In the /”Other users/” section, locate the Microsoft account you want to remove.
Click on the account and select Remove.
4. Confirm Account Removal
A warning will appear stating that all data associated with the account on the device (e.g., files, apps, and settings) will be deleted.
Confirm the removal by clicking Delete account and data.
5. Restart Your Device
Restart your PC to ensure the changes take effect.
Tip:
If the account is still linked to system settings (e.g., OneDrive or Microsoft Store), unlink these services first to avoid issues.
Note: Removing an account from Windows 11 only deletes its local presence on the device. The Microsoft account itself remains active and accessible online.
