Issue with Microsoft Credentials on Windows 10 TP (Build 10049)

I keep getting a notification saying I need to update my Microsoft credentials. I click on it, and it takes me to my Microsoft account home. I have no idea what I am supposed to do on this page. I changed my password but it still pops up.

Does anyone else have this problem, and have anyone fixed it? It's not a big deal, but it has been happening for a couple of months and it's kinda frustrating.

Thanks for your help in advance.

Also I will note that it's not just this particular build. This has happened throughout the entire TP process.

EDIT: I have also tried delinking and relinking my Microsoft account. Didn't work.

Hi Gage,

I suggest you to Save the password in Credential Manager and check if that helps.

Refer to the steps below:

  1. Press Windows key + X.
  2. Click on Control Panel.
  3. Click on Credential Manager and select Windows Credentials.
  4. Go down to Generic Credentials and select MicrosoftAccount:user=<user_name> (where <user_name> should be your user name).
  5. Click Edit and Change the password and press Save.
  6. Check if issue persists.

Let us know if the issue persists, and we will be glad to assist you.
