Change the sign-in account on my Mac laptop?

When using the Dropbox desktop app on my Mac laptop, I want to sign-out of my comcast.net account and then sign-in to my yahoo.com account. I am able to sign out of my Comcast account but upon trying to sign back in it automatically signs me back in to my Comcast account. I am never given the option to choose an account to sign in to. When I delete the desktop app, restart, reinstall and restart it yet again automatically signs me into my Comcast account. How do I change accounts and sign in to my Yahoo account?

      What steps are you referring to? You did not post any steps to sign out of the dropbox desktop app.
