Cannot remove broken account from "Accounts used by other apps" in Windows 10
There is a broken "Work or school account" in my Windows 10 "E-mail & accounts" settings. On every startup, my computer shows a notification saying
The account is broken and must be repaired. The password was possibly changed.
I would like to completely remove that account from my system. However, it does not have a Remove button, just a Manage button, which takes me to a website (from my employer) which shows my mobile device, but not my desktop computer as registered devices. How do I remove this account from my computer?

Many guides online just missed the spot to disconnect it. They all show it under the Email & Accounts only.
From the Settings, rather than using "Email & Accounts" go down by two to "Access work or school." On that screen, you should get a list of the same accounts, but Disconnect is the only option if you click on an account for more details.
