Removing an account from OneDrive for Android
Hi Counie,
Quickest way to do this is click on the OneDrive app, on the bottom right you will see a tab called 'Me'. From here you will see sign-out at the bottom of the list.
You'll need to ensure that the account you want to move is selected first (you can confirm this by clicking in the top left as soon as you open the app, if this is a work account it will be a briefcase icon).
Thanks,
James
Hi James Parle
I'm having the problem Counie described (the post to which you replied). But in my case, I'm the end-user.
When I click the profile icon in the upper left-hand corner of the File Explorer window of the Android OneDrive app, it lists three accounts. The last is the one I want to fully remove.
Two Accounts in a Signed-In State
- My personal Microsoft Account
- My enterprise Office 365 Account
One Account in a Signed-Out State
- An OnMicrosoft.Com Account I've used in the past
What happens as I follow your instructions
- Before letting me select the OnMicrosoft.Com account in the upper left-hand corner, Android OneDrive makes me sign in to it.
- After doing so, I sign out of it (as you instruct) in the lower right-hand corner of the Android OneDrive app window.
- At that point, on checking the account drop-down list accessible via tapping on the profile icon in the upper left-hand corner of the app window, I find I'm back where I started.
- ---> The same three accounts are shown as described above, with the same signed-in/signed-out statuses!
- The situation fails to improve when I follow Angstromm's procedure.
- ---> The same three accounts are shown as described above, with the same signed-in/signed-out statuses!
Thank you in advance for your help!
Kind regards,
Paul
