A relative has a Windows 8.1 home PC that we upgraded to Win 10 home 22H2 by downloading from MS. It was set up originally to sign in as an MS account.
Recently when using the left side page list on a PDF file we kept getting a popup from MS that said something like “you need to enter your password as you are accessing secure data.”
In trying to get rid of this nuisance I changed the profile to a local, administrative account. That stopped the popups.
However, now when I sign into http://www.outlook.com it goes directly in without entering ID/pswd (even though I am a local acct). If I try to sign out of outlook I get the MSN screen that says I am signed out BUT I can go right back in without signing in again.
On the upper right corner of outlook web when I open the sign out box there is a sub list of my acct ID and another item “sign in with a different account”. On my acct ID there is a “…” option which if clicked says, “sign out and forget”. Then on clicking, that option changes to “signing out of this account” and then a long delay where sometimes it actually signs out and sometimes it does not. However, once I sign back in, the normal sign out (at the very top right where it says “sign out” stops working again.)
In contrast my Win 10 22H2 home with factory install immediately signs out by clicking the upper right normal “sign out” box.
I know this might seem picky but if there is a bug here there are probably others and if a person is travelling and not aware that clicking the normal sign out really does not sign out and the laptop is stolen then a thief could potentially have access to a lot of stuff. I would have never been aware of this if I had not been using the PDF list feature that kicked off the popup.
