Windows 10: Your Gmail account settings are out of date...

I have started using the Mail app again on my desktop, as Outlook 2016 is so slow. The trouble is, I keep getting the message "your Gmail settings are out of date..." several times per day. I go in and enter my Gmail password but sometimes that only fixes it for 10 minutes!

I think it may be because W10 has the wrong password stored, somewhere, because when I take the "Fix" action it autofills in a password but that is always wrong and I have to put the correct password in. Of course, I cannot tell what that wrong password is.

I have not changed my Gmail password recently and I am not using two factor authentication on that account.

Can anyone help with this?

Mail Account "out of date" after U/grade to W10

Step 1: Make sure your computer is completely up to date.

Step 2: Go to outlook and delete all accounts.

• Go to settings.
• Manage accounts.
• Click on your account
• Remove this account from your device
• Delete

Step 3: Restart your computer.

Step 4: Open outlook.

• Add account.
• Click on Google (Do not click on Microsoft account)
• Add your Gmail account.

That should fix it! Hope this helps, took me a while to figure it out.

 

Message : Your GMail Account Settings Are Out of Date

Since the latest Windows 10 update, I've been getting the message "Your Gmail Account Settings Are Out of Date" whenever I open Gmail. I've tried to fix it according to the instructions given, but I still keep getting the message. Also, I have to log in
to Gmail whenever I turn on my computer even though I've checked the box for "Keep me logged in." I've tried everything suggested -- what else can I do?

 

Your account settings are out of date

I keep getting a notification with an annoying ding that my account settings are out of date.

The problem appears to be with my first gmail account as that's the one that has the exclamation point next to it.

My other gmail account below on the list is functioning fine.

And as both gmail accounts are listed I'm assuming the message is referring to one of those, especially as I never use my Microsoft Outlook email account.

I've changed the password twice and can't see anything else to try.

Thanks in advance for your help.
