Everything seems to be working fine not sure when this settings change its because any of recent Microsoft update or I foolishly did something in my PC.

For the last 2 weeks I am not able to sign out my account from Microsoft Edge Browser and Edge also not letting other account to sign in. Please refer the below screenshot:

The only way you can actually sign out of Edge is by signing out of your Microsoft Account to a local account.

Microsoft Edge is linked with the Microsoft Account you use to sign into Windows 10.

Open Start > Settings > Accounts > Your info
Click sign in with a local account instead

Enter your current password
Click Next

Enter a name, password, confirm it, enter a hint
Click Next
Click Sign out and Finish

Sign into the account

Hey,
Just try adding your new account under account settings of your pc.
After that you have a option to select one of the accounts.
