Windows 10: Can't add Gmail account to my Mail app in Windows 10 (0x80004005)

Hi,


I have the same issue as mentioned in


https://answers.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/forum/apps_windows_10-outlook_mail-winpc/cant-add-a-gmail-account-to-windows-10-builtin/742906fd-8fb2-4d80-9f4d-9031720fac7a


except that the error code is 0x80004005.


I tried adding the account via "Google" but also via "Advanced setup > Internet email > IMAP", but am getting the same error in both cases.


I used to be able to add a single Gmail account, but this is failing since I added a different Windows user.


Quite frustrating, hope someone can help.


Thanks,


Will

Where did you get that message about mail app isn't supported? And to create application password? Can you post a picture of it?

I'm using gmail account in Mail app with two step verification and all I had to do was confirm password and second step verification.. All went smooth, and I'm getting mails in multiple Windows PCs and phone.

 

Windows 10 Mail App - stop sync automatically Gmail Account

Hi
Thanks again for your replay.
In my phone i didn't do anything. It's Android phone so i just connect to my google user.
I use galaxy s8.

Yes in the mail app i do like you said. My google user use two step verification. I read that the maill app may not supported and MS recommend to create application password insides google consle and add the account via advancing options. I tired to do that before but its not sync calander and also not resolve the sync any way. I check also your link from MS and i do anything and same.
I back to the mail app not support two step verification---- i think it's not right because the mail open and get the gmail mails so the issue is not in gmail user.

Thanks
