Outlook 2016 doesn't accept password or app password

I had the problem with two different outlook accounts, one had the 2-steps authentication one had not.

My client on both a desktop and a laptop was office outlook 2013.

Over the last few days, I was able to go by using an app password for the 2-steps account. Sometimes entering it once would suffice, sometimes it would keep asking but closing the error message would work.

For the regular account, entering the password once every time I would open office outlook would usually work.

Now today after MSFT supposedly fixed the issue, I ran into a new issue on the account that had the 2-steps authentication. I could get my emails to updates using my usual method, but when I would try to reply to an email, outlook would close abruptly.

I don't know if this was the result of the problem and fix or a coincidence, but I had to do an online repair (reinstall) of outlook in order to fix the issue.

I also has to check the remember password box the first time I got the prompt.

Since then, so far, it appears to be working.

i just normally do this on computer

Does someone definitively know that the problem is fixed? With these trailing reports, is it still an active problem?

so is this same thing happening to you eh i don't understand why was never an issue until today why no longer showing items in deleted trash and showing it yesterday i think something matter with microsoft i hope this get fixed by tomorrow

imagine one deleted something in deleted trash and say to themself oh no i need to restore it they should just go into deleted trash and restore it not today for some odd reason it stop working after last night and will no longer show anything that you deleted in deleted trash meh

The Microsoft Support status for this issue at

https://support.microsoft.com/en-us/office/outlook-and-other-apps-are-unable-to-connect-to-outlook-com-f4202ebf-89c6-4a8a-bec3-3d60cf7deaef

has been updated from "Investigating" to "Resolved". I hope it was not premature, but at this time we have not had further authentication/login prompt errors using Windows Live Mail, Outlook 2013, Outlook 2016, Thunderbird, and the Samsung Email apps since early this morning when changes were evidently made by the Outlook team.
