Getting a sign in error in Word help.
Hi ThomasNielsen,
The error message you're encountering, "AADSTS16000: User account from identity provider https://sts.windows.net doesn't exist in tenant Microsoft and cannot access the application Vortex. Sign out and sign in again with a different Azure AD user account,"is indicating that there's an issue with the authentication of your Microsoft 365 account when trying to access the "Vortex" application.
To troubleshoot this, you can start by signing out of your Microsoft 365 account, clearing your browser's cookies and cache, and then signing in again. Sometimes, stored credentials can lead to authentication problems.
Make sure you're using the correct username and password.
Also, verify that your user account is correctly set up in Azure AD and associated with the right tenant. If your organization uses multi-factor authentication (MFA), ensure you've completed the MFA process.
This error message typically indicates an authentication problem rather than a bug in Microsoft Word or Office 365, so addressing your Azure AD account and authentication setup is essential to resolving the issue.

Thanks for your response.
This error happens on multiple users, multiple windows devices and I have seen it happen on multiple tenants.
Did you try to reproduce the problem?
Kind regards
