As shown in the Title, I have a problem to sign-in of OneDrive, and when I try to sign in then error shows "Error code 8x8004deed" and suggested to try again. I tried again but same result. There is no similar question in Q&A.

Then, I have two questions.

  1. What is a meaning of "0x8004deed" error ?
  2. Any suggestions to solve this error ?

Thank you.

    Hello,

    Thank you very much for your answer to my question. It was help a lot and solved the issue on OneDrive which is bundled in Microsoft account (5GB) and worked fine with multiple PCs. I believed the account was Microsoft365; unfortunately, however, I found the account type is not included OneDrive (not Microsoft365) over the serveral confirmation with multiple people and now I fully understood the error code was caused the connection error, because of different contract...

    Anyway, I really apologize this wasn't technical issue...but your answer was really helpful. Thank you for your advise.
