Method 2: Using Control Panel

A Windows user doesn’t need anybody to introduce him/her to the control panel as it has been serving as a toolbox for the OS since long. In this method, we use Control Panel to delete the Microsoft account from your computer.

Step 1: Hit Win key+ X simultaneously to get the WinX menu. Anyone can easily access Control Panel from the same menu as you can see in the image given below.

Step 2: Once you get there, you must click on User accounts. In case you face any difficulty spotting the option, use the search field to stumble upon the same.

Step 3: You see many options both on the left panel and the main window. From the main window, you should go with Manage another account option.

Step 5: Finally, hit Delete the account. The computer will ask you whether you want to keep your files or not. You can choose to go with any option no matter what.

Method 3: Using netplwiz

Are you familiar with the Run dialogue box? Even though Windows 10 doesn’t have a special position for it, we can still access the box with the most popular command.

Step 1: As you read above, we need to access the Run dialogue box. For that, either you can press Win key+ R or you will have to search for Run in the start menu.

Step 2: Once the box gets itself appeared before you, type netplwiz into the field and hit the Enter key.

Step 3: After the above action, you will see a new wizard named User accounts. It will display all the user accounts attached to the computer right beneath Users for this computer.

Step 4: As you might have guessed, the first thing you should do is selecting the account you don’t want to have on the computer anymore.

Step 5: After selecting the account, you need to hit the Remove button (the second one in the row). {You can use the same wizard to add or manage accounts too}.

Step 6: Just like any sensitive action we perform on the computer, it will ask you to confirm your choice. Simply, click Yes. There you go!
