Microsoft 365, How do I undo the allow my organization to manage my account?

I clicked the allow your organization to Manage checkbox. How do I undo that?

To remedy your problem, first uninstall Office. We will assume you are on Windows 10.

  1. Click your Start Menu > Settings (Gear Icon) > Accounts > Email & Accounts > Remove the @illinois.edu account
  2. Do the same for the Start Menu > Settings (Gear Icon) > Accounts > Access work or school > Remove the @illinois.edu account
  3. Next log into Outlook on the web Portal: //portal.office.com/account > Click View apps & Devices > There will be a Devices Drop down, click that and Sign out of your impacted computer.
  4. Restart your computer and Re-install office while not checking the box to allow your organization to Manage. That will disconnect it from the Organization.

No data will be lost in these processes.
