If work or school account problem keeps popping up, then it’s the right time to delete them. Sometimes you are unable to log in with a Microsoft account, and if that’s the case, you’ll need to remove it with steps from this guide.

What’s a work or school account?

A work or school account is a type of organizational Microsoft account set up via one of Microsoft’s cloud services. You can set up such an account with Skype for Business, Office 365, or Azure Active directory.

The advantages of having a work or school account are the following:

  • It syncs with Microsoft services between an organization (or school) and a user’s PC. That account links your PC with the organization’s network.
  • Allows you to separate school or work files and your personal data on the same PC.

This is beneficial since Microsoft Office lets you switch between personal and work accounts, so you can keep your personal and work files separate.
