Windows system Microsoft account verification keeps failing
Microsoft account verification on windwos frequently reports errors (prompting that it cannot connect or verification failed), resulting in inability to log in or synchronize data normally. I want a stable solution!

To fix frequent Microsoft account verification failures on Windows:
- Check your internet connection and ensure it’s stable.
- Sync your system date and time accurately.
- Clear the Microsoft Account credentials:
- Go to Credential Manager > Windows Credentials and remove related entries.
- Run Windows Update and install all updates.
- Try signing out and re-adding your Microsoft account.
- Temporarily disable firewall or VPN that might block verification.
- If the problem persists, create a new local user account and then link your Microsoft account again.
This usually stabilizes account verification and syncing.
Verify that the system time and time zone are accurate (Settings > Time Language > Date Time), and clear outdated login credentials from the Credential Manager (Control Panel > User Accounts > Manage Windows Credentials).
