For me what helped was adding the following registry key to force Browser Emulation (compatibility mode) to IE 11 which supports Google sign in

HKLM:\Software\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\Main\FeatureControl\FEATURE_BROWSER_EMULATION
Name: OUTLOOK.EXE
Value: 11000 (DWORD, decimal)

And to be on safe side, just adding these to sysWOW64 for 32bit emulation, + HKCU nodes for per-user experience. Worked! 🙂

I created a .reg file to carry out these changes.

• Create a Restore point -or- Back up the registry (RegEdit --> File --> export).
• Right click on your desktop and create a new text file.
• Copy/paste the text between the lines below:-
  ___________________________________________________

Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00

[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\Main\FeatureControl\FEATURE_BROWSER_EMULATION]
"Outlook.exe"=dword:00002af8

[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\WOW6432Node\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\Main\FeatureControl\FEATURE_BROWSER_EMULATION]
"Outlook.exe"=dword:00002af8

[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\Main\FeatureControl\FEATURE_BROWSER_EMULATION]
"OUTLOOK.EXE"=dword:00002af8

___________________________________________________

• Save the text file to your Desktop as "Gmail_fix.reg"
• Right-click on this file and run as Administrator
• Reboot
• Test by creating a Gmail account in Outlook
• Post here with the result of the test.

Good luck!
