    Hi Christy, none of this worked. Just kept going in circles.

    The fix I came up with was to go all the way back to Outlook Classic. Once there I was able to sign the email account in and get it up and running.

    Once that was done, I switched back to the New Outlook and it carried the email account forward with it.

    There really should be a better way, eh?

    Hi @Anne Rivers ,

    Welcome to our forum!

    How did you add the Gmail account in New Outlook for Windows? As mentioned in this article?
