Fixed issue with 0x8000000b error code when syncing Gmail


Thanks freshmeat. I discovered something else. Once I set up the Gmail in Windows 10 mail according to these instructions, which worked nicely, I noticed that the Gmail account on my iPhone stopped working. It was obviously because 2-step was turned on. So, I went into Google and turned off 2-step and emails populated into my iPhone. However, I feared that Gmail in Windows 10 wouldn't work any longer, but it did. So, it appears that once you turn on 2-step, generate the 16-digit code and set up the Gmail account in W10, you can turn off 2-Step, which obviates the need for app passwords, and Gmail still works in W10.

Anyways, if I could just get the Google calendar to work in the W10 app, that would be great. Maybe there will be a fix in the next major W10 update. Life used to be so much easier with earlier versions of Windows. There are things I like about W10, but there's a lot of other things not so much, like having to deal with this kind of crap where you think all you have to do is click on buttons and links which led you through a process to seamlessly set things up and then errors like 0x8000000b and the new one I got of 0x80004005 when adding the calendar. Microsoft really needs to start fixing this stuff. Seems like every time they say they have improved something, it gets worse.

Hi, I'm trying to add my Gmail to the mail app and it would connect and keeps coming up with Error Code: 0x8000000b. I've tried restarting my computer but it still doesn't seem to connect.
