Trying to add a comcast.net email account to the new Outlook. software indicates I need an IMAP password and may need an app password as well. How do I get that?

Been having this issue off and on for years. Sometimes it will just work fine for months, and then it will start failing. It fixes itself and then it fails again. It's definitely an issue on the Comcast side and their "tech support" is a joke. Nobody there knows what they are doing and nobody knows how to fix it. One of the many reasons I try not to use the Comcast email unless I have to.

Garcia,

Thank you so much for your prompt response to my question. Unfortunately, that didn't resolve my issue. I am however grateful for your willingness to help me.

Thank you,

No one ever gets an answer that works here. I've been chasing this one for a while

when I sign in to my comcast/Xfinity account there is no link to "Manage My Account". How else can I get an app password in order to add my comcast.net account to my new outlook?

None of your steps work. Xfinity does not have a manage my account or security tab any more. Cannot find app passwords except for directions on how to change on iphone. This should not be so difficult.
