How to fix the Outlook couldn’t set up your account error The other issue could be that you have an old version of Outlook that doesn’t support 2-factor authentication and wants an APP PASSWORD If you have two-factor authentication and you get this message when trying to set up your office 365 email account within outlook then here is the fix ( it is likely a stored password or app password issue)įirst off, the reason this happens is that Outlook likely has your password stored in credential manager, and when you try to set up your outlook profile, it is supplying your stored credentials rather than letting you type them in. Outlook stop asking me for password in a loop for this account.CAN’T SETUP OFFICE 365 ON OUTLOOK WITH 2 FACTOR AUTHENTICATION TURNED ON – SOMETHING WENT WRONG AND OUTLOOK COULDN’T SET UP YOUR ACCOUNT One thing seem to help, I connect to one of my O365 account via and after I have no problem with Outlook for this account. Removed and reconfigured O365 account in Outlook.I added to registry : "AlwaysUseMSOAuthForAutoDiscover"=dword:00000001 (This one make a windows flashing in Outlook).I added to registry : "ExcludeExplicitO365Endpoint"=dword:00000001.I created a new profile with only 1 O365 account.Here a list of what I've done, none of them helped: Now the last resort is to reset my Windows profile and I don't want to do that because I have so much configuration in it. I tried so much thing that I cant list all of it here. And sometime during the day it ask me one time my password again. At the beginning it asked me only when I started outlook but now it is a real pain. I take me 15-30 mins each morning to got access. Sometime 1 account begin working the other not. I stop Outlook, delete Credential (OAUTH) in credential manager, and retry. And it start, I reenter password, do MFA, and still required password. My problem is everyday when I start Outlook, he ask me for password (and MFA too) for my 2 Office 365 accounts, that's not a big deal yet, but after it said at the bottom 'password required'. I use Outlook 2021 (not O365) with 2 account Office 365 (2 different tenant) and some imap, pop3 and gmail accounts. I search everywhere but I only found simple solution that doesn't help. Since one month I have problem with Outlook.
