Windows 10: Can't access my Outlook, regardless of the security notification telling me otherwise.

Stupid bloody Hotmail. I'm sick of it. Most useless e-mail system ever created.

I've been waiting almost half a day for the verification text with a code to come through, so I can actually access my e-mails from my bank.

All I did was want to change the security from my phone number to my Gmail (which has worked perfectly since day one, I might add).

Now I get this:

This site requires a security code to sign in. When your security info updates on 1/9/2019 you will be able to access this site. You can still access sites such as Outlook and Skype that don't require a security code.
On 12/10/2018 you requested that your security info be replaced.

OUTLOOK IS THE SITE I'M TRYING TO USE, AND I HAVE TO WAIT A SODDING MONTH TO BE ABLE TO?

Sort your awful security methods out, Microsoft. And stop lying about what can and can't be used.

(SOLVED/CLOSED)looking for help with Android phone CONSTANT wireless signal notification

Yeah, thats not a solution she is interested in......I've suggested that course of action. Thanks though.

Just to clarify, I feel that there MUST be a step, or series of steps to turn off JUST the wireless notification sound. Thats what Im driving @ here.

 

Outlook Notifications appear after a delay

Turning on notification in Outlook does not guarantee Windows 10 will honor them. So, you have to ensure Windows 10 notification settings are set to allow notifications from the application (they may be in the Action Center, but not displayed on the Desktop).

If you already have Outlook configured to display the desktop alert, then follow these steps to configure Windows.

1. In the Action Center (in the bottom right corner, next to your time)
   click on All Settings. An alternative method to open the Settings
   app would be to open the Start Menu and then click on Settings.
   
2. Click on: System.
   
3. From the panel on the left select: Notifications & Actions.
   
4. In the “Show notifications from these apps” section at the bottom,
   click on
   Outlook. (If Outlook isn’t listed, you haven’t received a new message yet so Outlook isn’t registered yet as an app that receives
   notifications. Simply send yourself a test message in that case and
   reopen the Settings app.
   Also note that you must be using Outlook 2013 or Outlook 2016 as Outlook 2010 and previous have their own notifications which do not
   integrates with Windows 10)
   
5. Make sure that you have enabled all notification options.
   
6. Close Settings.
   

You may or may not need to restart Outlook.

If this doesn't fix the issue, you may need to perform a repair install of Office.

 

Security notifications with Windows 10.

In Windows 7 you used to be able to list exclusions. I could stop the notification by going one step further down in my security, which I don't want to do. The notifications in this case are from Dropbox, and are frequent and annoying, but the app is
completely trustworthy, and I always click yes without a thought.

Isn't there something deep in th system which I could access?
