[QUOTE="ForgottenSeer 100397, post: 1056588"] I find Microsoft too invasive with the MS Account. Instead, I use a Local Account on my system. Recently, I signed in to MS Office with my Outlook account but later signed out. To my surprise, Microsoft signed me into Edge with my Outlook account. When I signed in to MS Office, it gave me two options for the email used: Use for Office and Use for Other Apps. I chose the first one. Microsoft included the email in Windows Settings—Accounts—Email & accounts and configured it to sign in to apps automatically. I removed the email from there to stop Microsoft from using it for apps. When logging in to Microsoft apps, review the options shown and check Windows Settings—Accounts—Email & accounts. Because of Microsoft's invasiveness, I avoid using the MS account and Windows or Universal apps. [/QUOTE]
