    How to dissociate my Microsoft ID from my Wife's account


    My wife has her own computer and uses a local login to her account.

    Yesterday she asked "Why has my login account got a picture of you".

    I had set a picture for my personal account on my machine, and it had propagated to her system and login id because I probably logged into my MS account while logged in to her local account at some time in the past.

    So the question is how on earth to I undo this association?

    Both systems are 21H2 (FWIW).
