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. To locate and view the registry setting for Anonymous Authentication in the Outlook profile, follow these steps. This issue can occur if the Logon network security setting on the Security tab of the Microsoft Exchange dialog box is set to a value other than Anonymous Authentication. 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.

You may have to rebuild/restore your outlook folder/files which is a pain. I’d do that one step at a FixTechGuide login issue guide time, forgoing the restore of the cached files. If this box is greyed out or disabled then you need to reset the Windows Credential Manager first. Or, any suggestion on how to fix this issue, even better.

Outlook stuck in an MFA loop

I do NOT have this issue with the other laptop, an iPad, a MacBook Pro and FixTechGuide Outlook repair tutorial tablet. 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.
