I am receiving continuos emails from microsoft saying that lost connection to google account, everytime I reconnect after about 10 min microsoft lost connection again and I receive another email.

Is the problem some config in google account or changes in google services?

Is the problem some config in  microsoft account security? 

Note: When reconnecting, the permission asked by google is only offline access.

    Hi Christina

    I don't understand this bit...

    Also, please provide the additional information in accessing your account.

    • Screenshot of the page were you encounter this issue
    • Fiddler trace logs

    Please post this details in the private message area that I have created for security reasons.

    Screenshot of what? It's an email that Microsoft send out. The same one that many people in this thread have already quoted or shown.

    This has the feeling of being like the beginnings of the same generic support circle that has happened several times in this thread where you eventually tell us to unlink the account and relink it and we tell you it doesn't work. Can we not just skip that phase and move on to the fixing it bit

    thanks

    I didn't have the "Send email from your Gmail address using Outlook.com" option, so I removed the account as instructed. When I added it again, the option still wasn't showing up.
