    Hi, I understand you want to keep your Office 365 subscription while removing Skype or Teams, and that can feel a bit confusing.

    The root cause is that Skype and Teams are linked to your Microsoft account, which also holds your 365 subscriptions, so deleting one service completely would mean deleting the whole account.

    Instead, the best approach is to cancel any Skype subscriptions and sign out or uninstall the apps without touching your Microsoft account.

    Here’s what you can do: go to your Skype account settings and cancel any paid plans, then sign out of Skype and Teams on all devices and uninstall the apps if you don’t need them.

    If you’re using Teams for work or school, your IT admin can remove the Teams license without affecting Office apps.

    Quick question, are you trying to remove just the apps from your devices, or do you want to make sure your profile is hidden from others too?

    Regards,
    Aron
