Sorry. You're not a tenant of this place. Maybe try another account with the same email address but a different password that is from a home or work or student or was made by your employer or by you or is attached to your domain name, and give us the code on your authenticator and the one we just pretended to email you and sorry something went wrong and we need to quit and you need teams classic or modern or your OneDrive for business or personal or the sync service isn't running..
Or local account.
Reading this gave me PTSD. Locked out due to expired password (what is a reminder email, who needs those?), can't access anything corporate, submitted ticket to IT on web portal, IT is trying to reach me via Teams...
Apple*: We care about your privacy.
*or basically any company that collect data
Apple is way more privacy conscious than Google, which I appreciate.
Everybody cares about my privacy. It would be achshually great if anybody respected it.
I tick that box a hundred times a day and can confirm it doesn't do shit (at least in my work environment).
I'm a Microsoft engineer with 3 decades of experience.
Please run sfc /scannow. If that doesn't work, please try searching for updates or reinstalling drivers.
Haha reinstall drivers is still an official way to fix things??? 3 and a half decades in and sounds like windows still "hold my beer" and self destructs like a plastic chair left in the sun.
reboot is the only solution, followed by full reinstall which is the only solution. Or just use arch btw lol
Ps: I don't use arch but that joke is too easy to pass
try clearing your cookies or whatever on whatever browser and sign in page for that, I need to do that every now and again and I lose my shit every time.
Sadly I think it has more to do with the way Windows handles stuff in general. My personal machine seems to have no issues, LMDE with the foxes (Firefox/LibreWolf); my work computer though, Windows with the chromes (Edge/Chrome) seems to get confused the moment their is a second profile in the browser.
All that being said, I've definitely tried clearing the cookies and just living with it.
They make a joke about it in The Boys. Which I find so extra funny. Perfect way to sell the character is tech savvy
Trickle down economics.
Microsoft successfully converting a generation to Linux one Log in at a time, I commend Microsoft for having a socialist agenda so secret they don’t even know about it.
More lies.
That you own media you bought.
After that, "I have read and agree with the terms and conditions".
Here's a reminder to sign this initiative if you are a citizen of EU and spread the word about it everywhere if you are not!
Death by 1000 sign-in screens.
You can't use a VPN if it's not a company device, so we'll make it significantly easier and use a VDI.
First, open the client which will require you to log in and MFA via text. Then you select the one and only environment to connect to, which will require a log in. Once you are connected to a pool you can RDP into your workstation or servers, that don't retain usernames no matter how many times you try to save it.
Oh and for security purposes it has a 5 minute lock policy for RDP. And another few minutes for the VDI session so you'll have eto log back in twice.
Don't forget you have to change your password every 60 days for security, and cannot reuse the last 5 passwords.
15 characters minimum, with at least one upper case, lower case, number and special character with No more than 2 repeating characters
Based only on how often I get dipshit prompts like this one, I must be one of the only people to keep hitting "No", "Never Remember Password", unchecking "Stay Signed in", disabling "Password Manager"
I have a fucking login. I remember my password. It would take 4 quadrillion years to bruteforce due to number of characters and character diversity. I don't need automated help.
Yeah but that won't help you if your password gets stolen somehow and someone is trying to log in from India or something
I never have to re-sign into, well, anything as long as I:
- Don't reformat/reinitialize the device I save the login on
- Don't log in from another device on services that only allow 1 concurrent login (like Steam)
- Don't clear my cookies
The last item is gonna hurt a lot of the extreme privacy people. I know y'all never save cookies.
I have to use this shit for work. If you don't set your cookies to auto delete it is basically impossible to go through the Microsoft SSO after around a week. Just use a decent password manager if you can and press enter 4 or five times.
If the other comments knew the details, the response would be terror not annoyance:
Management types in smaller, growing businesses are shockingly susceptible to the promise of "cleaning things up" by making everything a "Microsoft shop", even when that means transferring data and control to Azure (competitors also try but MSFT almost always wins)
They're happy, they own nothing and they don't even know it
Note: this is largely referring to corporate accounts
You can get stuck in a loop if you have multiple accounts such as a dev and production account.
So if you're in stuck in the dev account and need to log into production you get stuck in a loop of it trying to login as the dev account.
The only way out is to find a dev site and log out from the dev account.
My brother in Christ, scope your sessions... Firefox has containers, chrome has profiles, or hell, just use two different browsers.
Sadly I cannot make every user of our software do that when MSAL/Entra is the chosen IAM provider :(
I go to portal.azure.com and use the account switcher to sign in to second (prod) account there. This will make both accounts show up when logging in to a service without having to log out from the first.
"remind me later"
The more times they require a sign in, the more places they can track you across anonymous/ private tabs.
Passkey(with Bitwarden/Vaultwarden), bro.
I’ve had a few sites ask me to set up a passkey, only for it to immediately break and fail to log in. For now, I’m giving up in the technology until it matures. They need to move beyond “It’s easy - just click once and you’re all set, nothing to configure” to acknowledging many of us use different browsers and devices by different manufacturers. I don’t want login locked to one device.
Passkey and blockchain wallets should merge
Kroger's stupid fucking app does this every time for their separate pharmacy login from their normal login. I just gave up and always do guest refill. It's a pain in the ass but it actually takes less time.
