Session Expired when maling comment

William Howard 20

When I attempt to comment on an article in my MSN homepage in the comment section, I receive a "session expired" error message. How do I fix this, as it just started to do this!

Regardless of how many times I check for updates or clear cookies MSN keeps stating 'session expired, sign in to comment' Is this a new arm of MSN censoring? Guidelines aren't draconian enough?

Dear William Howard

Thanks for reaching out! Welcome to Microsoft Q&A. I'm Haien from Microsoft Q&A.

The "Session Expired" message, especially when it just started happening, is most often caused by a conflict with your browser’s stored data (cookies). These cookies are essential for maintaining your active Microsoft sign-in status. That is a common report recently and our Team Development were trying to fix it.

Here are some effective workarounds that you can try until have newest information:

Check your time zone by going to Settings > Time & language > Date & time > Ensure "Set time automatically" and "Set time zone automatically" are both turned On.
Ensure your PC has fully updated by going Settings > Update & Security (Win 10) or Windows Update (Win 11) > Check for updates > Install any available.
Open Microsoft Edge (recommended for MSN)
Ensure your Microsoft Edge has fully updated by going to Settings > About Microsoft Edge > Update if prompted
Go to account.microsoft.com > sign out completely > Close your browser > Reopen it > Sign in again.
Press Ctrl + Shift + Delete > select "Cookies and other site data" and "Cached images and files" (last 24 hours or All time), then clear
Try commenting on an MSN article right away

Please keep me updated with anything new that you were try to each option.
