For over a week, I have had the message "Unable to load these settings. Please try again later." in my "Sync email" settings in Outlook.com.Is anyone else having this issue?

It is December 21, 2023 and I am having the same problem right now. Any update would be most appreciated.

I am having the same issue as well. This has happened before, but is happening again. Why does Microsoft not get this sorted, it is so annoying to keep getting emails saying that the email could not be synced to not be able to go in and update! Hopefully this will be resolved soon.

>> Why does Microsoft not get this sorted,>>I half expect them to completely remove the feature for those of us who are grandfathered in. (If you remove the only connected account, the feature disappears immediately.)I recommend users contact outlook.com support to report it. Log into Outlook.com on the web using a PC or Mac. If you log in from a mobile device, you need to use the desktop site. Click the ? icon on the Help tab to open the Help menu.Type a question. Scroll to the end of the research results and click Yes for Still need help?.How to get support for Outlook.comhttps://support.office.com/article/f5482a98-616c-4d44-b7c5-8aaaadf5c11a

Still not working, but keep sending those daily reminder emails Microsoft...

What is really frustrating is that this "Unable to load these settings ...Please try again later" error message has been there for over a year and nothing, absolutely nothing, is being done about it.

Sync email - Unable to load these settings. Please try again later.

DonnyM this seems to be a trending issue. I hope #Microsoft delivers a solution to this soon. I have been receiving daily sync error emails for a connected account that I deleted months ago but i am not able to fix that. This is so annoying

  Bryanbez yes, there is a very active discussion at answers.microsoft.com which seems to show it is a global issue. One or two people are reporting that it is now working again for them. But not for me.

You are definitely not alone in this. It seems to be a known issue, but so far there hasn't been any recent updates from the Microsoft forums.
