Signing out of OneDrive completely can be a bit tricky, but don't worry, I've got you covered.
To start, you can simply click on your profile picture in the top right corner of the OneDrive window and select "Sign out" from the dropdown menu. This will log you out of your account, but it's not the same as completely disconnecting from OneDrive.
If you're using a Windows 10 device, you can also sign out of OneDrive by going to the Start menu, typing "OneDrive" in the search bar, and then clicking on the "Settings" option. From there, you can click on the "Account" tab and select "Sign out" at the bottom of the window.
Signing out of OneDrive on a Mac is a bit different - you'll need to go to the top menu bar and click on "OneDrive" > "Preferences" > "Sign out".
