• Office (er, Microsoft) 365 authentication heads for the hills

  If you’re trying to log in to Microsoft 365, and can’t get past the authentication step, you aren’t alone.

  Per Brad Sams:

  Microsoft is aware of the issue but at this time there is not an ETA for a fix. Amusingly, the support account for Microsoft 365 on Twitter recommends that you check your account dashboard for MO222965 but when you try to authenticate, it fails… If you are already logged into an app or dashboard, you should be safe to utilize that feature but do not log out.

  I expect it’ll be fixed in short order.

  Here’s the official notification:

  

  Man, if Microsoft itself can’t install patches to its key service without blowing things up….

  Although the September Win10 version 2004 “optional, non-security, C/D/E Week” patch still hasn’t surfaced, bumps in this month’s patches have been largely worked out.

  Win10 version 2004 is still beset with bugs. Give it another month to mature.
