Why does Microsoft Outlook keep asking for Password

Why does Microsoft Outlook keeps constantly asking for Password. I even had to change my password thinking it would help. It didn't. Even after I enter password, still continues prompting me to enter password. Just does not go away. And it is also affecting my account with Spectrum Roadrunner to perform other functions that I was able to do without having to enter a password. This problem just recently started and Spectrum can't help since it's a Microsoft issue causing the problem. Tried to get help by calling Microsoft by using the recommended website since I'm unable to get a live person to talk to, but the website Microsoft is directing to go for HELP wants to charge a Fee plus a monthly fee. We purchased Microsoft. Didn't use to have this issue

    Are you seriously suggesting that I delete 5 email accounts, each on 4 machines across 3 different email applications, because this problem that occurs from time to time across MS email accounts and requires the same password to be typed in anything from 1 to a dozen times to be accepted, is actually a client setup issue rather than a mail server problem???!!!!

    MS need to address the issue on their mail servers.

    Thanks for this clarification. Thankfully I don’t have an issue outlook on my iPad or iPhones. nevertheless, I did hear somebody earlier today mention making similar alterations on an activity Windows system using credentials?

    Yes. Go under mail in safari. Details. And remove the account. Then add the account back. But do it under Microsoft essentials there. NOT outlook. That fixed my issue. A guy who knows his stuff explained to me that they dont' care about live or outlook, meaning Microsoft so they don't take the time they do with essentials to update things.
