    • Delete any duplicate or old Microsoft/Work accounts.
    1. Clear Outlook app cache and data
    • Settings → Apps → Outlook → Storage → Clear Cache & Clear Data.
    1. Reinstall Outlook
    • Uninstall Outlook → Reboot → Turn off Auto Sync Data → Reinstall from Play Store.
    • You can find Auto Sync Data at the bottom of "Manage Accounts" section.

    1. Sign in using the full UPN format
    • For school accounts, use your organization’s domain.
    • This forces a fresh authentication session.
