How to NOT auto-sign in to all MS Sites
tpaladin I work on the Edge product team. I totally understand that you prefer not to be auto signed in, let me try to help get you to that state.
Today, Edge auto signs into sites using browser to website single sign on. That is, if you sign into Edge - you get auto signed into sites. To disable this behavior, you can sign out of any microsoft site and we will not auto sign you back in the next time. The way we achieve this is by setting a cookie (IgnoreCAW for the domain login.live.com).
Since you're clearing cookies on exit, this sign out state cookie is getting cleared and you're getting browser to web SSO the next time around. Could you try to clear all cookies besides the ones associated with login.live.com? If you do this, you should see that you will stay signed out of microsoft sites
V-FRROME Thanks for your help, but none of those suggestions work.
I've already tried all of those settings, but if I stay logged into Edge, I am automatically logged into OneDrive - even after I've manually cleared all cookies. This is unacceptable behavior for a browser for me.
This is precisely why I hated logging into Chrome because I did not want to automatically log into every Google service automatically. MS seems to have aped this behavior.
An option to log out of the browser would suffice. For now, I'll stick to Firefox because it is a seperate account from both my MS and Google accounts.

I honestly have no issue allowing the cookies. I only want to log off long enough to verify my Password. Everything is connected so when I have to change a password, I'm not sure how many sites or accounts are affected by the change? Apparently, I have to reset or change the password to confirm what it is but my Microsoft Account signs me back in immediately.
