    Hi, I'm John! I will help you with this.

    If you haven't tried anything yet please start by following the steps in this Microsoft support article: https://support.microsoft.com/office/how-to-remove-an-account-in-onedrive-72699268-9e64-45bd-b723-9a19f4512fd1

    For a complete removal, you should also delete any cached credentials from your Mac's Keychain Access app.

    I really hope this information is helpful! Let me know if you have any further questions or concerns.

    To delete your OneDrive account on your Mac, you need to unlink it first. Here are the steps to do that:

    1. On the menu bar, select the OneDrive icon.
    2. Select More > Preferences.
    3. On the Account tab, select Unlink this Mac > Unlink account.
    4. After unlinking, you can choose to uninstall OneDrive if you wish.

    If you want to completely remove OneDrive from your Mac, you can uninstall it by going to Applications, finding OneDrive, and moving it to the Trash.

    After unlinking, you can sign in with the correct Microsoft account if needed.
