I have been using the stocks data types feature on Excel without any issues until yesterday. However, I'm now receiving the following error message:
"You need to sign in with an account associated with a subscription to use these data types. Select "Sign in" at the top of Excel."
I've tried signing out and back in to Excel, restarting my laptop, and updating to the latest version (Microsoft® Excel® for Microsoft 365 MSO, Version 2306 Build 16.0.16529.20164 64-bit). However, I'm still encountering the same error.
Can anyone explain why this error is occurring, and suggest how to resolve this issue? Any guidance would be appreciated.

Jean 5 Reputation points2023-07-11T20:17:01.1733333+00:00 I have the same exact issue since yesterday. I've been trying all types of solutions I found on the internet like signing in and out, also with a restart between those two actions. I already fully uninstalled my Office 365 and installed it again. I updated it Office 365. Nothing seemed to work.
What I noticed is that when I log in with my work account, I don't get this issue.
This would suggest that there is a difference between 365 personal and 365 enterpise?

BlaQice 5 Reputation points2023-07-11T21:11:15.92+00:00 Same Issue!
I can't believe I just spent 2 hours horsing around with this crap, and it's not even something I'm doing wrong.
'TF?!

Russell N 90 Reputation points2023-07-11T21:36:10.6466667+00:00 I'm having the same issue and thought maybe my office subscription had expired. It is current so the issue must lie with MSFT.
