If you’re a Microsoft Outlook 2013 user, there’s a good chance that you’ve used the Delete button to remove messages from your account. But what if you want to delete an Outlook 2013 account but don’t know how? Here’s how to do it:

  1. Open the Start screen and type “cmd” (without the quotes) into the search bar.
  2. Type “netstat -a” and press Enter.
  3. The netstat -a report will show you all of your network connections and their status. If there is an Outlook 2013 account connected to any of them, it will be listed in the “Connections” section, as well as any other accounts that are connected to that network connection. If there isn’t an Outlook 2013 account connected to any of those networks, then the “Not Connected” section will be empty.
  4. If there is an Outlook 2013 account connected to one of your networks, open it and click on its name in the “Not Connected” section. Then click on the Delete button in the top right corner of its window (it’ll say “Confirm deletion”) and confirm by clicking on OK twice.
