Can´t add IMAP email to the outlook Desktop APP Windows 11
I have several emails already in the outlook Desktop APP Windows 11. Some of them are other outlook accounts, some are IMAP. For some reason I can´t add a new specific IMAP account. I do can add it to the outlook mobile app, and to other email providers, so this is an issue with the desktop app. A possible hypothesis on why is this happening, is that I already have another email called the same, but with different domain. However, that doesn't give me issue in the mobile app. I have been having this type of issues with the outlook Desktop APP in the last 2 years. I remember having trouble adding an Outlook account. I assume the app is extremely buggy, and im not the only one having issues adding accounts.

Xbox authentication doesn't work on LAN
Starting from around yesterday Minecraft and Xbox authentication stopped working on all devices in my network connected via LAN. This problem doesn't seem to persist with any other applications OR with devices connected to WIFI. I would assume its an issue on my part, but from everything I've tested it seems to happen ONLY when trying to log into the Xbox app and Minecraft, everything else works just fine. Would love some help with this. Sorry if this isn't the correct section for thisVLOOKUP table array highlight problem for two excel files

So how to solve this problem? This is file Book3 This is file Book2Long wait for initial load of this site
There are numerous topics about slowness of this site going back for years (before recent update, which was already so long ago). But what i am experiencing for the past few months is something different. Every time i come to this site first time and say click a link in RSS feed for one of the blog articles i have to wait up to a minute for it to start loading anything (it shows an empty page and loading animation in the browser). After that it would be loading pages quick (well, normal speed for this site, which is still sluggish). But if i do not browse here for 30 min or longer then again first load will be annoyingly long. It is like there is some load balancer/throttling for each new visitor and you have to stand in line.
MCT exam discount
I just tried booking a few of the new beta exams, specifically: - AB-900 - AB-730 - AB-731 I was expecting to have my MCT discount applied at the checkout page, but it's not coming up. Could anyone confirm if the discounts are not working anymore? Or if they just don't apply to these AB exams?
Windows 10 ESU not activated
Windows 10 support is ending after next year October. However, while I should be eligible for the ESU program it did not kick in on my PC. This despite having KB5063709 installed. Note: I have two computers with my account, one being on Windows 11 and the other being on Windows 10. The older system does not support Windows 11 due to the CPU restrictions. I would like to extent the support period but I`m out of solution space to get it working. Please advice.
SSO in Azure doesn't work for the test users from the free Microsoft 365 Developer Program
Hi, I have made an integration of SAP S/4HANA Public Cloud with Microsoft MS Teams functionalities: share as a Tab and share a Card. When the link is sent from the main account, which I used while configurating the Microsoft 365 Developer Program, SSO with SAP BTP works correctly. If I am logged with some of the test accounts, the SSO doesn't work. The roles in Azure are the same, the Application CIS was also assigned to all the users. Other then that everything works fine. Could you please help with that?

My MCT certificate isn't showing up on my profile. I have an MCT certificate valid until December 2025, but it's not in my educational profile.

HHi! I read and comment on Edge home page off and on all day. About 10 days ago, I tried to post something and got the msg that the session had expired, followed by "log in to comment". But I AM logged in and have been for quite a while. My avatar shows, my history is there, the people I follow are marked, etc. I can't figure out what the problem is and it's driving me nuts. Any ideas would be very much appreciated!
