Unable to connect via RDP with Microsoft Account
Tomas_Chylik
If anyone has run into the same problem, I have found that a user with a Microsoft account has never logged into the computer with a password. The first time he logged in with Microsoft Authenticator and then used his PIN each time.
So the solution was to log this user on the remote computer using the password first.
The RDP connection to the Microsoft Accoun account is then fully functional.

Ugh. THANK YOU, Tomas_Chylik
This is typical Microsoft bullsh%^. Encourage users to use an online login and make a PIN at registration. Then prevent some critical part of the OS from working because of it.
This was especially frustrating because I'm using the same account on both machines (the host and the guest), so you'd think it would JUST WORK. (Well... you would if you had no experience with Microsoft.)
THANK YOU AGAIN!
