Windows 10: Unusual activity email, but nothing showing in Recent Activity page

I have received an email from the genuine Microsoft email account I checked this first saying there has been unusual activity from a foreign country on my account and that I should review my recent activity list to let them know if it was me or not. However, when I go to the Recent activity page in my account, the entry described in the email is not there. There are numerous other “unsuccessful” logins from abroad in the last month, but there is no “unusual activity” section that I can see.Can anyone tell me why I am receiving emails asking me to check unusual activity that isn’t listed? Is

Definition of "Unusual Activity Detected"

Hello,

I recently received an email notification that "Unusual sign-in activity was detected."

I reviewed the Recent activity page and under the column labeled "Session Type"> "Sesson activity" it was listed with "Unusual activity detected"

Does this mean that they were successful in signing into my account or were they blocked by a security code or question?

I know there is another question posted with this same subject title, however, they did not get a helpful answer, so I am reposting.

Thanks for the assistance!

 

Recent Activity on my account shows Unusual activity detected.

I just checked my live.ca email account recent activity. It showed Unusual activity detected on 13 Sept. 2017 at many different times. The ip 52.132.67.29 turns out to be a Microsoft ip. Showed from Newark and
the same from Redmond, Washington. Bothe the same ip.

Could this be a security issue or Exchange ActiveSync. I was advised to change my password, which I did, and now get the message, You've secured your account since this activity occurred.

Question. Should I be concerned or is this normal activity for my email syncing ?

TNX, Bob

 

Microsoft account unusual sign-in activity

Thank you for the reply. I have answered your questions in bold.

But I still fail to see why any of the questions/measures apply to my situation when Microsoft's "Review recent activity" log shows no "unusual sign-in activity" whatsoever. There are approximately 20 sessions showing on my activity log currently, and everyone
single one of them shows them to be: my computer, my IP address, my location, my operating system, my browser; all at times of the day when I was on my computer...

So unless Microsoft's "Review recent activity" page is inaccurate, where on earth is the "unusual sign-in activity" and why am I getting daily emails alerting me to something, that according to Microsoft's "recent activity" log, does not exist?

Thanks for your continued help/efforts,

SR

03/03/17: Update: and, FTR, I got the email again last night, 8 days in a row now. And once again, there is no "unusual sign-in activity" showing in my "recent activity" whatsoever.
