My computer is continusly asking me to sign into my microsoft 365 account through outlook or in settings. I put my password in, then 30 minutes later it asks for it again. Today I got the error message 29 stating it could not update my license. I checked to make sure it was active and my billing was updated and all was good. Please advise.

    I'm getting the same issue. Office works fine, but when I try to use the "Update License" button to enable CoPilot in Office apps, I get the same error code (29).
