removing an unused account from the welcome screen
Hello tatiana_larina,
in the new Teams, previously logged in accounts are displayed for selection after you log out.
To remove the users from the new Microsoft Teams, you can do the following.
- Click on the Windows button > Run
- Run one by one path from this list and delete evrything in the folder:%LocalAppData%\Packages\MSTeams_8wekyb3d8bbwe
%LocalAppData%\Packages\Microsoft.AAD.BrokerPlugin_cw5n1h2txyewy
%LocalAppData%\Microsoft\OneAuth
%LocalAppData%\Microsoft\TokenBroker
%LocalAppData%\Microsoft\IdentityCache
This will remove all the signed-in users (including the user you want to remove).

This worked for me as of 5/13/2025. We had former employees showing up on the Teams welcome page on our conference-room computer. This cleared all previously logged in accounts and refreshed the welcome screen to a clean slate. Thank you.
