That’s a bug in web Outlook. You can work around it by deleting cookies from Outlook before logging in. On Firefox, I always press Ctrl+Shift+H, search for “outlook” and then right-click on an entry → Forget About This Site.
Don’t ask me why it takes so long for them to fix it…
That’s helpful, thank you! 😄
I had been opening it in incognito to get around it, but even then it seemed to fail sometimes. I’ll tell people to try this next time
Two weeks ago I had this same problem trying to sign in to remote play my Xbox. Once I overcame this bug there were other bugs and I eventually just gave up.
Honestly I think that the only reason why M$ and all it’s apps and services has become so big is, that it’s installed by default in almost any new PC since ever, first naturally because the lack of alternatives. Luckily it’s changing nowadays, there are more and more shops which sell PC only with FreeDOS, to the User choice which OS he want to use with. Now it’s the same with the Phones, by default iOS or Android, after killing Windows Phone (was a good one, but stupid decisions of MS ended it) and Symbiant.
Anyone is still using M$ Office/Outlook/365? With a ton of better alternatives out there.
Unfortunately large institutions have been spending millions to transition TO 365 the past few years. Education and healthcare are the ones I’m aware of
