    Hi @Denzel Moyo

    Thank you for reaching Microsoft Q&A!

    Based on the error message you it seems issue with the Verify Account Credentials.
    Could you please check that the account name and password you are using for the synchronization service are correct as per the below document according to the installation type https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/entra/identity/hybrid/connect/how-to-connect-install-express
    https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/entra/identity/hybrid/connect/how-to-connect-install-custom
    Also, verify that you have followed the Prerequisites for Microsoft Entra Connect.
