Cannot Remove a OneDrive "Place" in Microsoft Office

Hello,

In Microsoft Word 2013, if you click on File - Add A Place - OneDrive, and enter your Windows Login Information: it creates a new Onedrive "Place" for easy file saving. The problem is removing this "Place". I unknowingly added my Onedrive as a new "Place" on a friends Microsoft Word 2013 account, and now am unable to remove it. It is very important that I find a way to remove this, since I don't want him to constantly have access to my files. In addition, his machine is experiencing other technical difficulties, so he would like to remove my OneDrive for troubleshooting purposes.

Please help me find a way to remove my OneDrive Place from his Microsoft Office Account.

Thank you in advance for any assistance,

Luc

Thank you for your response,

I was messing around with it last night and successfully found a way to remove additional "Places" from Office. By going to File | Account, you can see all connected services and can remove them there.

You should see "Sign out" listed at the top of the screen at File | Account. Try that option.
