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.

Thanks! Had the same issue with Win11 - logging in with my password rather than the PIN once worked. I can now login via RemoteDesktop using the MicrosoftAccount and password.
