Windows 10: Microsoft Outlook Email Connected Accounts Error message on login

I was given a prompt about a connected Email account (cannot remember exactly what the sequence was)

I eventually was prompted to enter the current password - which has probably been changed in last few days (I cannot remember that either)

I need to enter the USER name for the connected Email Account and the password.

I can sort the Password out - I have it saved in my DASHLANE password saver app - BUT what should I enter, please for the USER NAME?

I presume that there is a TENFORUMS tutorial that contains instructions for this - if there is please will you, dear reader direct me to it - Thank you.

I am doing this procedure via my LINX1010B Laptop Device with WINDOWS 10 Updated to today.

Thank you for any help offered.

How to add a Microsoft email account to Outlook 2016

I saw an old post describing the steps to add an msn.com email account to Microsoft Outlook. It had to be done manually selecting the first option and using blu404.m.hotmail as the server. If I try to do the same, however, I get an error message saying that the server can't be reached.

How can I add a Microsoft email account (hotmail/outlook) to desktop Outlook? I can use this email account in Outlook Live, (it shows Outlook Mail in the upper left corner of my emails), but I can't add it to Outlook 2016 from Office Professional. I was able to add an @att.net email account, but I don't know what to do for a Microsoft account.

If I try to add it without any manual steps I get an error message saying (more or less): "an encrypted email did not work, try and unencrypted email", but that does not work either. Clearly, some manual configuration is needed: please guide me along the required steps. In case it matters, my password is 8 characters long.

 

outlook account config

SO today my friend asked me if i could post this question on the forum:



He wants to configure a outlook account with 1 email, with that outlook account he wants to run the same account in 2 diferent computers he wants the both computer to be connected in network, for example:

• he receives a email and that email is sent to each computer;
• he deletes a email from one computer and it also deletes on the other;
• he moves a email to a folder it also moves on the other computer;

If you guys can help me would be nice!

thanks!
