Hi,

Recently purchased Office 2024 LTSC for home use and licence key successfully applied. Office installed on Windows 10, 22H2.

When trying to configure Hotmail account on Outlook 2024, I get the following error:

When I try an advanced setup via Outlook.com, POP or IMAP (below), nothing works. Any ideas?

    Hi @Michael Ball ,

    Welcome to our forum!

    In order to further confirm the issue, please add another account to check if the issue persists.

    If the issue only occurs when you add the Hotmail.com account, does this issue occur when you try to configure your Hotmail.com account as POP/IMAP in Outlook 2024?

    If so, as i know, considering that the issue may be related to Modern Authentication, please note:image

    Please create a new Outlook Desktop profile(Control Panel>Mail>Show Profiles>add) and then add your Outlook.com account using automatic account configuration, which will add the account with Modern Authentication. 

    Hope to help you!
