Need to remove a Microsoft Account from "Choose an account" options in Edge

Greetings,

I need some assistance. I have an issue where I'm given multiple choices to log into a site that only has one option to login with.

My setup. I'm using the new Edge. I have a personal profile, a work profile, and a profile specifically for dynamics 365. This setup is identical (as far as I can tell) at home but the difference is on my d365 profile at work its continually asking me to use my work account or my d365 account while at home it knows I can only use the d365 account to log in.

Normally this isn't an issue, just choose the account you want and move on. However, in d365 its an issue. It seems as its trying to use my work account over my d365 account and therefore begins to continually prompt me to log in because my work account doesn't have the credentials to access d365. At home, where there is only one on the account choosing prompt, I do not get the issue of constant login prompts.

SO far I've uninstalled Edge via windows uninstaller and restarted. I've used revo uninstaller as well, with a reboot. I've cleared cookies and cache and I cannot get the duplicate account to stop popping up. I've removed the d365 account and re-added to no avail.

Removing the account from my windows email & accounts isn't an option. I know the setup will work as it works on my personal machine at home.

Please help!

    For me, the below steps worked:

    Windows > Settings > Accounts > Access Work of School > Choose the Account you want to remove > Click "Disconnect".

    To remove an account from Edge maybe that account should be removed from the PC. Navigate to Accounts in Settings and remove the additional accounts or the ones you would like to remove. Please check if this fixes your problem.
