Switch to another account

If you use several Yandex accounts, you can switch between them without entering your username and password:



You can choose an account in Yandex.Disk, Yandex.Mail, and other Yandex services that support this feature. The selected account becomes your primary one: it is used to authorize you in services that don't support switching yet.

You can add no more than 15 Yandex IDs to the list. To remove an account from the list, switch to that account and follow the Log out link. The current username disappears from the list and you automatically switch to the next one.

To remove multiple accounts from the list, follow Add account, click the icon in the upper left corner and then Log out to the right of the account you want to remove.

Delete a Yandex.Disk account

Yandex.Disk is enabled by default for all Yandex users and can't be disabled. This makes it impossible to delete a Yandex.Disk account. But you can remove all files on Yandex.Disk and stop using it. In this case, you still can access other Yandex services (for example, Yandex.Mail).
