Hi,



I realize that you are unable to sign in to the Yahoo mail app in Windows 10, let me assist you.



To assist you better, check and let us know whether you can login to the Yahoo mail app using other email credentials and also try login to the email using browser and check if you can access the email.

If you are able to login to the Yahoo mail app with other email credentials, then I suggest you to contact the Yahoo mail app support and check if it helps.

Mail sync problem

That's exactly what I ended up doing as well to get my Yahoo mail account working in the Windows 10 Mail app. I had to login to Yahoo and change a setting to allow "less secure" mail apps to be used to access my Yahoo mail account. I think Yahoo is doing
this to try and convince people to use their Yahoo mail app for Windows 10 so they can show us ads, LOL.

 

It was the 2 step verification that caused the problem.I disabled it and it works fine also in outlook.
