Cannot sign in to a hotmail account in Microsoft Edge to sync my profile in Ubuntu

Copper Contributor

Hi,

I am using the following Linux Mint version as a desktop

Static hostname: PC-LMint
Chassis: laptop
Machine ID: dafd9a61376bXXXXaa8b190bc1edXXXX
Boot ID: 2b02c787ad4c4XXXXa7208e81e32XXXX
Operating System: Linux Mint 20.3
Kernel: Linux 5.4.0-96-generic
Architecture: x86-64

I was using Microsoft Edge Beta and my Hotmail account to sync my Microsft Edge profile until I upgraded to Edge Stable Version 97.0.1072.76 (Official Build) (64-bit). As a result, the profile sync stopped. So I completely removed Microsoft Edge and reinstalled it and it is now failing to login to my Hotmail account. However, when I tried to login to a second profile using another outlook account I am fine. 

Is there a way to remove the cached Hotmail account in Ubuntu to re-sync it again?
