Creators Update - Account Problem
Since Microsoft 'creators update' about a week ago I have been getting the following message pop up daily;
Microsoft account problem
We need to fix your Microsoft account before you can use shared experiences. Select this message to open settings to fix things.
The issue is when I click on it brings up a box with one of my gmail addresses (presumably that I attached to Microsoft account way back) and it wants my password in order to sign in and 'fix'. But it doesn't recognise my password, so I went through forgot password option and it sends code so I can change password which I did twice, and then it doesn't recognise new password. I went into Microsoft manage account options and turned off auto synch etc, but that doesn't help. Yesterday I managed to sign in to the account via Microsoft manage account options with my original google password and reluctantly clicked 'allow' and it still popped up again today.
Thing is I don't think I use any 'shared experiences', I just do (different) gmail through firefox browser, but I really want to stop this daily pop-up. Thought about just deleting the account but I don't know if that will create other issues. Anyway they're permanently bugging me to fix an issue I don't really care about, and no amount of acquiescing to their request seems to satisfy them.
Would be very grateful for any advice.
