Hello there, I couldn't login to my email on the Outlook website or on my smartphone. I never log out of my email on my smartphone and computer, but it's logged out. When I tried to login, I got the message "Too Many Requests" on my smartphone and computer. May you help me so I can login to my email account? I've changed my password, but still couldn't login.

    Microsoft, shame on you! I tried all the suggestions listed here and the only one that worked was hinted at in an earlier reply: try logging in using the Edge browser. That's right, no other browser would let me log in, only Edge. Nothing else about my account or system changed in the meantime, and no time had passed since my other attempts. If MS is going to force us to use their browser to log in, the least they could do is give us a meaningful error message that tells us so.

    ************ SOLUTION ********************
    IM WRITING IN CAPS IN HOPES MORE PEOPLE GET TO SEE THIS REPLY

    "in Chrome browser (my usual browser) 3 dots at top right -> Delete browsing data -> Basic (Time range: I changed from the "Last hour" to "All Time" -> Delete data. For good measure, I repeated the step for all open browser windows, even those not at Outlook page.

    Then I closed all browsers, opened a fresh Chrome browser, went to Outlook page to sign-in and voila, issue was fixed and I could log-in as per normal again!"

    THE SUGGESTION ABOVE WAS MADE IN THIS THREAD BY A USER NAMED Jellybeanie (thanks Jelly!)

    This was the one solution that definitely and (so far) permanently resolved he issue.
    TRY THIS OUT, GUYS

    Every post that had a suggestion on how to fix it .. I tried them all ... didn't work for me. BUT, I think I figured out what *may be* my problem. It was working well till the last update was installed. Opened outlook .. didn't work. Turn off my VPN, it worked. The other day it didn't work, my VPN was on so I disconnected it and it worked again. I can turn my VPN on AFTER I log in and no problems. But that's just another suggestion. Other than that, I have NO CLUE :-(
