How to remove exchange account from Windows Mobile 6

Posted On Jul 28, 2008 at 7:35 pm

If you find yourself needing to remove an exchange account from your windows mobile 6 device, you will most likely notice that the option of doing this is probably not in the first place you expected. No worries, though. It is a very simple process as follows:

  • Go to Start -> Programs -> Active Sync
  • Click Menu - > Options
  • Choose Microsoft Exchange*
  • Click on Menu-> Delete*

*If your using a touch screen device, you need to tap and hold on the exchange account for a second and the context menu will appear with the option to delete.

Keep in mind that this action will likely delete all your contacts, messages, tasks, etc. I would recommend doing a backup of your items beforehand. I have used and suggest using the free program PIM Backup to backup your items before deleting the exchange account.
