I am using the free version of Outlook.com and followed the forums and help how to set up a GMail sync to Outlook.com.
However since two days I got this clicking on the "Sync Email" menu.
Even the X button on the upper right corner does not operates when being in this menu.
I tried this menu in browsers like Edge, Internet Explorer, Chrome, Opera.
All the same results.
Questions:
Configuring preferences and options in Outlook.com
Locked Question. This question was migrated from the Microsoft Support Community. You can vote on whether it's helpful, but you can't add comments or replies or follow the question.
Do you as a moderator have an idea if Microsoft is aware of this? It's been 6 days since this thread was created and my outlook account is basically useless without the ability to open the sync mail settings.
Careful, some workarounds mess things up further.
Hopefully Outlook won't procrastinate on this issue!
Same issue here, very annoying. Is there a workaround to set POP to open?
And it’s not just I can’t select account I want to send it from when using iPhone or desktop app, but the problem that default outlook.com email address stopped working and does not accept email.
I was worried that it was deprecated too because I do not have the ability to update the password of a connected account. So, I receive a daily email informing me to update my credentials.
