How do I remove suggested accounts from outlook?

I struggled with same and this is what worked for me

remove all - C:\Users<username>\AppData\Local\Microsoft\OneAuth\blobs

open each file with notepad in - C:\Users<username>\AppData\Local\Microsoft\OneAuth\accounts

check which account you want to keep, and remove the files with unwanted accounts

remove all - C:\Users<username>\AppData\Local\Microsoft\IdentityCache

I want close Outlook Acc. No Problem Sign In ******@outlook.com It Is Fine and PW Rainnyday@10 It is Good Only problem is SHARE LINK is not easy share or cannot remove RECOMMENT EMAIL ADDRESS If you need verify you can go to ******@gmail.com

I updated my reply. You can try to see if deleting the contents of those directories that helps. Please procees with caution, I'm no expert in this matter. I just dig around places until something works.

Kcrtr, your solution works. Thanks

Hi KC,

Thanks for the additional info. I followed your suggestion, but it didn't work out at first. However, after trying a combination of the suggestions from you, Mr. H3lL and Jan van der Plas1 I was able to make it happen, at least for me. I use Google Chrome, my OS is Windows 11 and I installed the New Outlook, via the button in Windows Mail at the top right.

Here is what I had to do:

1. Remove the account (if not already done) in New Outlook via its Settings button
2. In Google Chrome you need to clear the cookies:
   • Go to chrome://settings/clearBrowserData
   • Check 'Cookies and other site data'
   • Click 'Clear data' button.
3. Remove the account in Windows (if it is there): Windows Settings > Accounts > Email & accounts > click on the account that you want to remove > click Remove.
4. Remove all files in C:\Users<username>\AppData\Local\Microsoft\OneAuth\blobs
5. Remove everything in C:\Users<username>\AppData\Local\Microsoft\IdentityCache (in my case that was only one directory named 1)
6. Open each file with notepad in C:\Users<username>\AppData\Local\Microsoft\OneAuth\accounts and remove the files that contain the unwanted account
7. Open each file with notepad in C:\Users<username>\AppData\Local\Microsoft\Outlook and remove the files that contain the unwanted account. FYI No need to check the subdirs.
8. Restart the computer (very important).

Reopen New Outlook and if you try to add the account again you will need its password.

By the way, the following dirs where not in my computer:

C:\Users\<username>\AppData\Local\Microsoft\Outlook\HubAppFileCache 

C:\Users\<username>\AppData\Local\Microsoft\Office\16.0\MruServiceCache 

Have a nice day!
