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

Thank you for your email. I'm glad o say that my problem with the password has long since been solved, but I can't remember how it happened.
I haven't yet changed to the new Outlook but may have to do so very soon. Not looking forward to changes.
Viewing this post through my iPad there doesn’t appear to be much of an issue with Microsoft outlook, but reverting to my PC repeated issue with password request is still driving me bonkers. With respect to upgrading to the new version of Outlook this is not an option for me. I run an act! CRM. system that integrates into Outlook through add-ins which only operate on the old version of outlook. The system just doesn’t record the information that I require to do.
Microsoft! This is a real issue for so many people out here, please get on and get the problem solved .
Thanks for your email. Fortunately my problem with the "password" issue was resolved months ago, I can't remember how after all this time. I am not anything like you in being able to experiment with different programmes, etc, I suppose I'll eventually have to upgrade to the new Outlook programme but I'm not looking forward to doing it. Change of this kind doesn't suit me! Glad you have got yours up and running successfully.
Thanks for your email. You are obviously so much more advanced in your abilities with programmes etc, I stick to the things I've used and daren't change things or I'd be lost. Glad to hear you have found a good replacement.
I got an email asking me to respond about the "password" problem, but it isn't my name. However, I did have the persistant request to enter the password at one time but gladly it got resolved and I haven't changed any of my software. I'll have to do so somewhere along the line...........
