Trying to remove a work account which doesn't exist any more

I had a work Office 365 account on my computer. I no longer work there. 

I removed the account from Outlook, thinking that would remove it from everything else, but lately I keep getting Windows reminders about there being a problem with the account. 

If I go in to Settings > Email & App Accounts the account is there but it wants me to sign in to manage it, which I can't do - it says the account does not exist. I think my former employer might have deleted it.

I just want it to stop notifying me, and would rather the account is removed altogether. 

Any suggestions?? 

Hi Stell_769,

Very unique issue that's happening here. Have you tried going into the "Access work or school" pane on the left in the same window? Your account should appear, from there you click Disconnect.

If you run into a wall, please let me know, and good luck.
