Disconnect Outlook Account from Windows 10 Computer

theereal

I recently sold my old computer but forgot to log out of my microsoft account on the computer. I was wondering if there is a way for me or for the new owner to disconnect my microsoft account from the computer? Is there a way i can "log out of all devices"? Or something like that?

 

Any help is greatly appriciated :)

Just for future reference, you should be wiping your drives using something like KillDisk before selling off your system.

Or you could boot into the Windows Installation Media > Repair your Computer > Troubleshoot > Advanced  Options > Command Prompt 

 

Then type the following commands:

diskpart

list disk

Locate the disk number for your internal drive. Would usually be disk 0. You will able to recognize it from the capacity. For this example, we'll say it's disk 0.

select disk 0

clean all

This is something every one should do if they're going to be selling or recycling their devices.
