But by mistake, I turned on MFA for the admin account, and then when I logged in again, it prompted me to use Microsoft Authenticator. The bad thing is this account was not registered with Microsoft Authenticator, so I couldn't see any codes Office 365 Sync Errors Fix in the authenticator. And there were no other login options, and I was stuck in a login loop. This is now the 2nd machine that presents the same issue. I have a valid MS 365 subscription that includes 5 device licenses. On the main machine where I have been using the suite, now my account is deactivated and if I try to authenticate, it looks like it works but then get the "Fix", "Authenticate", "Activate" or "Resolve" buttons, all of which do nothing.

Outlook credential prompt loop

So figuring that was the same issue here, I did the same thing. I'm also getting Error 29, which the MS support rep couldn't explain to me. I even tried disabling my anti -virus while authenticating, that didn't work. On the off chance that none of these things solve this issue for you, please contact our Outlook profile repair and recovery steps support team at

Loop of 'Sign in to your account'.

Which to me sounds like the issue is service side, not client side. A vast community of Microsoft Office365 users that are working together to support the product and others. I’ve seen this happen when the time and or date is wrong on the machine. It’s not caused by an out of sync MFA prompt as I have personally looked at a number of cases with the user as stepped through it. In each case the fix has either been one of the above items or a combination of them. There doesn’t appear to be any pattern to the issue occurring or the problem being limited to any specific computer or user.

Resetting the Windows Credential Manager:

If you are saying that they are getting multiple MFA prompts then this is an out of sync issue with the wrong code being used. We’ve got a support case opened with Microsoft on this one but it’s been FixTechGuide support for Office 365 open for about 3 months. Unfortunately when the problem occurs they’ve asked us to ring straight away but of course you can never get them instantly (we’ve just been given someone’s direct number now). To make a long story short we’ve since been asked to collect Outlook logs and install Fiddler to capture additional logging. Initially, this account didn't have MFA turned on, and I was able to log in.

• I am unable to stay signed in to my work account on Teams, Outlook, Office365 for more than 5 minutes.
• We have been experiencing the exact same issue for months now.
• Create your account and connect with a world of communities.
• Today was the first time in about 2 months that I had the issue.
• We too have been seeing this more and more, all W10 on O365, although we use Okta as our MFA.
• Initially, this account didn't have MFA turned on, and I was able to log in.

Changing Outlook Security Settings:

Hi, my office 365 account used to work with my desktop apps, I have confirmed with my admin system twice already that I have the appropriate license and everything is enabled but i keep getting stuck in this loop. We are looking at using conditional access policies where a user with a Domain joined PC is not prompted for MFA. Right now we have it set to prompt when a user is not on any of our corporate networks or they are using a mobile device. The user had Office 2015 and Office 2016 credentials and Teams credentials that we deleted. We checked with Word that the account was connected–it was and the we opened Outlook and it immediately connected. We too have been seeing this more and more, all W10 on O365, although we use Okta as our MFA.
