Microsoft 365 Login Loop because of MFA Microsoft Q&A

Today was the first time in about 2 months that I had the issue.

I feel like this issue is getting progressively worse as the fix used to be fix Outlook after Windows update issues clearing the credential manager or if it was bad uninstalling the entire Office Suite, clearing all traces and reinstalling and now we are seeing nothing helping it. Have looked all over and people have all sorts of possible solutions, but nothing we found to resolve the issue and get a new issue daily and just keep going through until it eventually works. Problem doesn’t just happen on PC’s connected to the internal network, but can happen when a laptop is remote and connected via external wifi or mobile hotspot. Today was the first time in about 2 months that I had the issue. It happened right before lunch, locked my machine, went out for lunch, came back, and logged in, this time successfully.

In the instances that this occurs the effected user is not new to MFA but has been running it for at least months. The problem appears to randomly affect users (I’ve had it affect myself once too), and the only solution appears to one of (or a combination of) the options in the OP. Out of 140 staff the problem seems to occur once every 2-3 weeks on average. In this case are you saying that there is a password prompt for the users credentials? Clear the Windows Credential manager or recreate the users Outlook profile. In fact if you just turned on MFA and you were not using MFA before you usually end up having to rebuild solve Office 365 mailbox sync delays the profile and clearing the credential manager.



Loop of 'Sign in to your account'.



I had this exact issue on another machine, that after 2.5 hours on the phone with MS support (via Zoom), the solution was to uninstall MS Office 365 and reinstall it. Yeap, you describe it exactly and unfortunately we still don’t have an answer. Closed the window without entering anything and Outlook returned to ‘Connected to Exchange’. I created a new Outlook profile, and then the old one started working. I wonder if the compuer cached a new logon token or something that the old Outlook profile could use. Also, during the new profile creation, I was only prompted for a password and not for MFA.

Resetting the Windows Credential Manager:





I have contacted my organization and everything looks alright from their end.. I went as far as getting a new device but it did not cut it. When I try to sign again it will be stuck in sign in loop with the message " Taking you to your organization sign in page" after I have logged in on my company site... When I log in to my account at first from a new device or after a while, it stays signed in and I can work peacefully for about an hour, then it automatically signs me out. Or, any suggestion on how to fix this issue, even rebuild Outlook data file quickly better. I do NOT have this issue with the other laptop, an iPad, a MacBook Pro and tablet.

  • It would be nice if it distinguished between your password and the app password.
  • We have been experiencing the exact same issue for months now.
  • Create your account and connect with a world of communities.
  • We too have been seeing this more and more, all W10 on O365, although we use Okta as our MFA.
  • Upgrade to Microsoft Edge to take advantage of the latest features, security updates, and technical support.


Changing Outlook Security Settings:



Upgrade to Microsoft Edge to take advantage of the latest features, security updates, and technical support. Create your account and connect with a world of communities. I cannot find the phone number again to contact MS Office support (eventually they were helpful, but only after insisting they help!), I'm in the Netherlands so if someone has a phone number, I'd love to get it again.
