    Recurring Microsoft Account Problem (Fix)?


    Every since the last 202H Win Update- I get this Fix Notification every day-
    I Googled & they suggested to turn off Nearby Sharing (not there?)/ Share Across devices options-
    this didn't help?

    Hello,

    Double check to make sure you verified your Microsoft account on the PC as a trusted device like below.

    I've done this Verify,,, several times-
    Q?- When I 1st logged into my outlook.com (gmail.com too) accounts, I selected Not to save password, thinking it would be Better Security (?). Could this be my problem?

    Way back I tried to change my "very old" outlook.com PW to a more secure PW, but they asked me verification questions from 40 years ago (I didn't remember?)?

    Not saving the password wouldn't have affected verifying the PC as trusted.

    Finally got it to stop nagging me for a Fix (3 days)-
    1. Did a System Files Disk Cleanup (Restore Points too).
    2. Next Day- Opened/Closed the New MS Edge 4-times (My AV added a Proxy rule...).

    Hope it stays Gone?

    It came back, so I upgraded to 21H1- It asked once so far, and the blue ball didn't keep spinning? Hope it gets better after the 8/10 Win update?
