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.

    I just got the message for the first time today. I don't know if it's actually from Microsoft, or if it's phishing. It's from windowlivemail.com, and has links to http://g.live.com/01sn/15 and http://g.live.com/01sn/10.

    Hi Edgar,

    I am having the same issue of everybody else. I receive an e-mail to reconnect to Google at least 3-4 times per week. I have disconnected and reconnected my Google account on several occasions.

    I can take a screenshot, but I anticipate it will be the same screenshot as everyone else:

    Reconnect to Google

    You connected Google to your Microsoft account so that you could stay in better touch with friends from both services. Unfortunately, we haven't been able to connect to your Google account lately.

    Hi DarkessFalls,

    Thank you for posting to Microsoft Community. I understand the inconvenience that you're getting a message about Reconnect to Google. Let me assist you on this.

    To isolate this issue, we recommend you to disconnect your Google account to your Outlook.com account and reconnect your Google account to your Outlook.com account.

    Also we would like to verify if you made any changes in your Google account like account information, password. If so, you need to update it also to your Outlook.com account.

    If same issue persist, get back to us and provide the affected account so we can investigate the issue.
