  1. unable to add @outlook.com account to mail app


    I have been trying to fix my outlook..com email account on the windows 10 mail app.


    I originally had my @outlook email account in the standard Win 10 Mail client. it would not let me access my emails and said I needed to "fix" something. each time I attempted to do this I got a rather unhelpful message that something went wrong with the error code 0x80070005.


    I attempted to remove the account from the client and re add it. I get the same message. the password is fine. it works for all the other Microsoft services that use that email address. such as this service, my xbox subscription and one drive.


    so all that is working but I removed the account from the client and now get the same message when trying to re add the account to the client.


    now all the email I have access to is my back up @gmail.com that I use for general purposes I need my @outlook for studies I am undertaking.

    the mail is working on my phone but it is not convenient to use this as it is a small phone.


    It does work through the outlook.com web page though but this is not an acceptable work around as it is in a web browser and I prefer to use the mail client

    :)

    unable to add @outlook.com account to mail app

    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!
