I had this weird problem and it turned out to be Zone Alarm Pro Firewall.
As soon as I (temporarily) disabled it and ran the Outlook 365 sign-in procedure again everything worked. I did notice that when Outlook started, even with the user signed in there it did not pick up his email account and I had to add it manually using 'Add Account'

Vadim_Antonov Was the solution for me too! Thanks so much!
I tried renaming and deleting the AAD.Broker and Account.Control folders. I renamed the NGC folder, reset TPM, ran the SARA utility, and no success. Then I unjoined from the AD domain, rejoined, and signed in under the user's AD account. When opening the first O365 app I was prompted to register the device in O365. After that all the apps opened fine.
I will note that about two weeks ago the same error/issue appeared on a laptop that had just had the motherboard replaced, and all it took was renaming the AAD Broker folder to fix it.
Wish I knew more about the underlying connections between a device and O365 to figure out what is causing this, but at least now I have a growing list of things to try.
