Issues or errors on the Microsoft Q&A website.
Hi @Mike ,
Thanks for reporting this issue.
The message “You are not authorized to make this response” is usually related to a temporary session/authentication issue in the community portal.
Please try the following basic troubleshooting steps:
- Refresh the browser page and try posting again
- Sign out and sign back into your account
- Try using an InPrivate/Incognito browser window
- Clear browser cache/cookies
- Try a different supported browser or device
- Ensure you are signed in with the correct account and your profile is fully registered in the community
Also verify whether the issue happens only for a specific thread or for all new posts/questions.
If the issue continues after trying the above, please share:
- Screenshot of the complete error
- Whether this occurs for replies, new questions, or both
- Browser/version being used
That will help further investigate the issue. Thanks for reporting this issue.
Thanks,
Akhil.
