Windows 10: Windows Search Verify Account

Windows Search prompts me that if I want to search emails, I have to verify my account. After I click the verify button, a window pops up for a dozen seconds with the message "Just a moment". But nothing has changed, Windows Search still requires me to verify my account. I have logged in with my MS account
