How do I log out of my e-mail?

To log out of your new Outlook email account, you can follow these steps:

1. Open the Outlook app or website.
2. Click on your profile picture or initials in the top right corner of the window.
3. In the dropdown menu, select Sign out or Log out.

This will log you out of your email account. If you are using a shared computer, it's a good practice to log out to protect your account from unauthorized access.

Dear Monti Wilson,

Welcome to the Microsoft Q&A forum.

We notice that Q&A Assist has provided the standard steps to sign out from Outlook on the web. For the most detailed and official instructions, including steps for different devices, you can always refer to this Microsoft support article: Sign out of Hotmail or Outlook.com

Could you please let us know if you tried these steps and what happened?

• Are you not seeing your profile picture or the "Sign out" option?
• Are you using the Outlook website (outlook.com) or the Outlook application on your computer?
• Do you see an error message, or does nothing happen when you click "Sign out"?

Providing these details will help us understand if you are facing a specific issue and allow us to give you more precise guidance.

Thank you!
