Hi @Khushi,

As MFA is enabled for user account, you have below two options while authenticating using Connect-PnPOnline:

1. Use -Interactive (previously UseWebLogin):

Connect-PnPOnline -Url https://******.sharepoint.com/ -Interactive

Use App Password for Office 365:

You can use App password in place of normal password to login easily.

I am using App Password for authentication in PowerShell as well as SharePoint Designer and it works well.

Create an app password for Office 365.

You can find more details in below threads:

1. Connect-SPOService : The sign-in name or password does not match one in the Microsoft account system
2. The sign-in name or password does not match one in the Microsoft account system
