I've run into this once before, and I've seen a couple of questions with the same issue on MS Forums (naturally with moronic and useless answers).

So basically it boils down to Edge has this, presumably hidden, feature where it automatically signs you in to Office apps. If you sign out of office.com, and then click back on the sign in link, and this auto sign in is enabled, you don't have to type in a password or anything, you're straight in.

Possibly useful for some people, but it's absolutely fucked my user's Edge installation. They have two Work email addresses (as they do work for two sister companies). The second work account, they can't access office or SharePoint because the main profile signs them in automatically to their fist work account

So I think, no problem, will create a second profile. However, despite that second profile being signed in to the second work account, Edge is still signing in to office and SharePoint using the first account automatically

Has anyone run into this, and possibly even has a solution?
