Even if it’s a useful tool, there may be occasions when you’d rather not be connected to the internet.

• When you are on the “Settings” page, go to the menu on the left side of your screen and click on “Security and Login.” It need to be the second choice down from the top, just below the heading “General.”

• Find the login that is now active on Messenger, and then, by clicking the three lines that are stacked horizontally to the right of it, pick the option to “Log out.”
• You will see that the login is removed from the list, which is how you will be able to determine if you have successfully checked out of the account.
