I already have done that , What I am asking for is when you go to tools --account setting--outlook data file --icloud is there. when I click remove I get an error message /dialog box???
create a dummy file  go to the folder right click select new text file
rename that file to the expected filename and extension that outlook is looking for.
This will create a 0 byte file that you can now remove from mail
and then you can delete it.
can you pls tell me how to do this in simple step by step directions.

Thank you
can you show me exactly what you want removed (screenshot)
Thanks
select the icloud data file then 'open folder"
if the folder doesn't exist then create the folder, you may not have permissions on that folder
if the file doesn't exist then right click on the folder select new -> text file  name it whatever you want and then close notepad (if it opened) then rename the file to what icloud wants it to be with the extension .pst.. now try removing it
