How to login to Minecraft successfully using outlook email

Question

When trying to log into Minecraft using my email @outlook.com, I get the error: "Please retry with a different device or other authentication method to sign in. For more details, please see this link". I have confirmed that my Microsoft email and password is correct.

I have also confirmed via email receipt that I purchased Minecraft through Mojang and successfully converted to Microsoft, as you can see below.

• From Mojang Studios: "Hello there, Thanks for verifying your account. Your old Mojang account details have been deactivated. From now on, use your Microsoft account to sign into the Minecraft Launcher and on Minecraft.net."

Any help would be appreciated.

Hey there! Nice to meet you!

The error message you provided indicates that you may have tried signing in too many times or there's possibly an issue with your app, browser, device, or network service, as stated by Microsoft: https://support.microsoft.com/account-billing/error-400-when-signing-in-7af27146-7624-4397-a374-6f8eae4367fe

Kindly perform these steps to fix the error:

1. Sign in using a different sign-in method by selecting "Other ways to sign in" on account.microsoft.com
2. Please make sure to update your app/devices, then try again.
3. Sign in using different devices, such as phone, computer, or tablet, and using different network services

Thank you for your understanding.

Best regards,
