how to delete auto login password from login screen

I tried the suggestions for this , but when i click tools it does not give me an option for account settings. is there another way?

I do not know what i am using. I was automatically switched from my hotmail acct. to outlook for my email. this is when the problem occured. When i go to tools, i do not get a drop down option fopr account settings.

Re: how to delete auto login password from login screen

Could you please provide us with more information?

Are you speaking about the Windows login?

Its a presetting within Outlook.com

You can only make it not keep it if you untick the box that says "Remember Me" when you sign in.

I may have fixed it out of sheer luck. i restarted my computer and when the windows login screen came up, i did not log in. I went to my outlook sign in tab and it now requires i sign in. Was that the problem?
I have no idea how this is connected and would prefer to manage my email seperately from any other program, but I may not be able to do that.
if you have any suggestions i would be happy to hear them. Thanks

Thanks. I had tried to uncheck the box , but it did not respond. Each box was checked. My sign in name, my password, and the box below saying keep my signed in. It was like the screen was frozen and i could not click on anything. I was able to delete the info, but when I put it back in it automatically6 checked it again. So frustrating.
I hope it is fixed, although now it keeps giving me a drop down menu on my name bar with my password as a choice for my user name, along with my actually sign in name. I highlighted it and deleted it as a choice, so i hope it is permanently deleted. Thanks again.
