Error code 0x80070490: Adding Gmail to Mail App
Hello Guys,
For long time, I'm trying to add my Gmail account to Microsoft Mail app on Windows 10. Every time I tried to add Gmail account, a error code 0x80070490 always brought up. I've researched online on this error code matter but nothing drastically troubleshooting steps found and no response directly from Windows Team on error code. Here are the steps that I've already performed on my computer multiple time's which also includes after every major updates of Windows 10. Note: When signing into my Gmail account, I give full access to access my account and when the app tried to access the account, that's when I get error code appear.
- Terminate and Reset the app from Settings/Apps/ Mail and Calendar > Advanced Options & Restart
- Update the Mail and Calendar app from Microsoft Store > Downloads and Updates
- Remove the app through PowerShell as Admin & Restart
(Get-AppxPackage Microsoft.windowscommunicationsapps | Remove-AppxPackage)
Reinstall the app from Microsoft Store & Restart Restart
- Set the Net User as Administrator from CMD & Restart
(net user administrator /active:yes)
- Run SFC Scannow & Restart
- Give all Windows apps a Full Control
& Finally - Restart Credential Manager Service & Restart
- Final OPTITION Wipe and Reinstall Windows 10 from scratch
After following all of these troubleshooting steps, I'm still promoting a Error Code 0x80070490 when signing into Gmail account. If anyone found a trick or fix, please do let me know below.
Windows Team please do look into this case and fix the issue.

Thank you for reaching outhttps://osrslab.com/I recommend contacting the school administrator who added the Windows digital license.Check to see if you have administrator privileges on this computer.
Please accept my best wishes.- what worked for me is simply an update of the Mail application... adding gmail account after clean installation of windows 10 21H2 on 4th of January 2022. just didn't work.. application needs to be updated via Microsoft Store, after that it works without any problems

I think I'm going to ditch it and use another mail app that actually works rather than only on a Tuesday with a full moon and a pink elephant in the East.
