There’s no apparent way to disable the Microsoft 365 account manager in the Start menu, and there’s no option to deactivate the constant nagging to upgrade to a paid Microsoft 365 subscription.
Sounds like an ad to me.
It’s a button to manage your Microsoft account that you signed into windows with. It’s not shocking that it has an option to upgrade said account
Edit:
- I don’t use windows, stop assuming things about me
- Everything you don’t like or don’t use isn’t an ad. This is no different than Gmail and Google chrome having Google drive integration.
- Microsoft has been forcing people to use online accounts for windows login, so it’s only natural for the account button to let you manage it as well.
- This isn’t an endorsement or a value judgement.

It’s not Microsofts account for starters, its also not their computer. Its a user account on the customers computer.
Linux mint doesn’t try and steal your content to train an AI. It’s also a much nicer experience in a lot of ways
