Activate the charm bar with win - C

Go to Settings then Accounts then Click on the account you want to delete, scroll all the way down on the accounts settings page, and click on the remove account button

Hmm, Windows XP and 7 didn't have a metro/modern ui mail app ;p – Journeyman Geek – 2012-10-27T10:27:00.453

being able to remove accounts? I'd consider it essential – Journeyman Geek – 2012-10-27T11:07:29.500

Is there any other way to open that besides WIN-C? Just curious, as there should be a method with the mouse. Thanks for the solution, too. – Xonatron – 2013-09-05T17:56:39.477

you can swipe the right edge. I just find win-c to be so much easier – Journeyman Geek – 2013-09-06T00:15:01.230
