It is important to note that signing out of your Hotmail Outlook account is essential for security purposes, especially if you are using a shared or public device. By signing out, you ensure that no one can access your emails or personal information.
Additionally, signing out is recommended when you have finished using your Hotmail Outlook account, even on your personal device, as it provides an extra layer of protection against unauthorized access.
Remember to sign in again the next time you want to access your Hotmail Outlook account.
