@Callender, How do I do a selective multi-quote? I don't want to quote the entire message since that may be quite lengthy.

If there are 3 questions, how do I quote each 3 questions only and separately so as to reply to them separately in one post? @RickC did that beautifully in post #8 of this message thread.

Click multi-quote button for each post that you want to select and edit then go to the last page of the thread, At the bottom Click "New Reply"

Then edit.

Sorry but... if both your MSAs are affected but changing from an MSA to a local account ALSO made the Edge issue go away then surely that suggests it's MSA-related, not browser-related?

Isn't OneDrive's synching the only common theme of both MSAs?

Yes, I agree. You are correct. It's likely MSA-related but it probably has something to do with parental controls and Edge also. The question is how do I convert these MSA accounts to Local accounts. Hopefully, that will address the parental controls issue also.

The common theme between both MSA is likely OneDrive (OneNote uses OneDrive for it's cloud component) but I'm not sure. A little background history of why I have gmail and outlook accounts.

The reason why I have gmail account is because I used to be a Chrome user and I used gmail.
But then, I decided to use Outlook.com's calendar and OneNote, and so I created the outlook.com account. The theory was syncing between Windows programs and Microsoft cell phones (I now use iPhone) would be trouble-free if I used Microsoft's own Calendar and OneDrive (using OneNote) since Microsoft is also the developer for Windows, manufactured their own cell phones, and both Calendar and OneNote are also Microsoft programs. And that worked fine for several years until 2-3 days ago and the only thing I can think of as the source of the parental control issue is the update to Edge since that is what recently changed.

You said above: "for each post that you want to select". Instead of that, I want to select a sentence or phrase only in a post. Not "for each post". Just like RickC did it in post #8.

I was editing my previous post whilst you were posting yours.

Check my previous post... I think the answer may be in your Microsoft Account dashboard(s) under Security.

Hope this helps...

I checked. Nothing. :-( What I don't understand is that it should be very easy to change an MSA to a Local Account, but in my case I can't. And that, might be related to the seemingly mystery feature 'parental controls' which is impossible to get rid of (I downloaded and installed the suggested --by Microsoft-- app in my cell phone but that didn't work either). :-(

At times like these, I start wondering if I would have been better off if I had never left the Mac, Linux distros, and the various *nixes I also used to do at work.

....

Update: I think I solved it. For some reason the Edge update and whatever new security gimmick it has come up with doesn't like the fact that I use VPN and that the accounts used my yahoo email as an email alternate ("ieatspamdaily: at yahoo) I guess there's some logic to that. Thank you all for all the help. I did some tests, and so far so good. Hopefully it stays that way.

RickC and Callender, I tried to thank you both but the forum say I need to "spread...". I guess it doesn't want duplicates?

You can't do that unless you edit your reply to remove the extra text.

Or else just copy the sentence into your reply and surround it with member id tag.

Like this:
