I have this issue a lot and you might also need to check a few other places for like the Credential Manager
Also you might need to clear this registry entries:
HKCUSoftwareMicrosoftOffice15.0 or 16.0CommonIdentityIdentities
HKCUSoftwareMicrosoftProtected Storage System Provider
HKCUSoftwareMicrosoftOffice15.0 or 16.0CommonIdentity

yeah you can do this, good for non-shared activation of Office 365 2016. its worth looking into the Office Deployment Toolkit from MS, you can setup Shared-User activation for systems that have multi users.
