Cannot remove my account

Hello all,

I have Windows 10 Pro 64-bit installed (fresh install).

I have installed my Windows 10.
Created Local Account and NOT MS Account to login into my PC.
Then I updated my Windows 10.
Opened up Windows 10 Store.
Updated all the applications within Store.
Used my email to sign in to Store to DL an app I want to use.
I signed into the store using "Login to this app ONLY".
Once I DLed the app I wanted I signed out of Store.
Then i wen to Settings-Accounts and clicked on my email account and clicked DELETE and then OK.
After that Settings/Accounts window closed.
When I go back to it my email is still there.
I tried to do it under Safe mode and nothing.

In other words i cannot remove my email account. I have used this before on my fresh instals and no problem but this time it's a problem.

Any tips?

Thanks!
Regards,
Blane

check with other services like onedrive if you're signed in
Also, remove your account again and then restart the pc
