PLEASE READ UPDATES (4) BELOW - ISSUE SOLVED
Original Message:
Already hit restore on windows' applications and restarted my pc, but every time I open Microsoft Edge now, on the top right corner it says my account is not logged in. And when I try to do it, the pop-up window says it's loading and then just turns to all white.
Anyone can help me please? Don't want to lose my favourites, passwords and workspaces ;_;
UPDATE 21 March:
And yes, I restarted my pc every time I tried something. What else can I do? I need to access my Edge Workspaces!
UPDATE 24th March:
UPDATE 25TH MARCH
UPDATE 10 APRIL:
Finally got a hold on https://support.microsoft.com/, initiated a live chat with support, and they had to install Install Quick Assist (Install Quick Assist - Microsoft Support) and they had to enter my PC and check what was wrong. They had no idea what was happening at the time (this all happened a few weeks ago - sorry for the late reply ut I had a lot of work delayed due to this error) and reinstalled Windows = issue solved.
The following day however, windows asked me to update again and the issue returned ahahahaha but I removed it, and then the following system updates didn't carry that sign in issue anymore.
Thank you all for your help and support during these VERY STRESSFUL DAYS! Hope the issue got solved for everyone!

I've just tried again... and it worked! I did nothing and it worked. I hope this is the case for you all!
(Win10)
I think my problems startet slowly over 1 month ago. I lost contact with my outlook and hotmail accounts on Outlook 2016 with the program just saying it needed login details. Logging in trough browser worked, but not trough Outlook 2016 app. I first tough it was a problem related to 2016 and just switched to using the new outlook.com app from MS store. It worked, but after some weeks it also startet having problems logging in. At the same time Edge was not syncronicing anymore and most app that used MS authenticator for stopped working
Yes, ultimately I found out same issues with other accounts, not just gmail ones.
Finally, I was able to login and sync.
The strict order of actions to accomplish this was (at least on my Windows 11):
The main inconvenient now is not knowing when is "safe" to run the update check again.
I hope they get this right, because for me there are a lot of MS apps (vital for my work) that were malfunctioning/looping in the login popup because Windows couldn't proceed to login my account. Windows logon and website’s login with the same account seemed not to be affected though, neither Android apps.
Not related to gmail.. Same problem with @passport.com login. I restored windows back before the update, and all was normal again. Then went to WU an installed the update again, and problem came back at once this update was installed on my computer.
