Hello,
I have been using the Gmail app for years with many accounts on it, and I have never had any issues. Since this morning, for NO apparent reason, the Gmail app is asking me to provide credentials for one of my Outlook accounts. I enter them (they are correct, I checked), and the app ends up displaying an error message "Account configuration problem: Incorrect username or password," which is undeniably false (especially given that the said credentials have been working for years and are still functioning right now on the desktop version of the account in question). Constant notifications asking me to enter credentials for this account make the whole thing completely unbearable.
How can I resolve this issue?
Thank you in advance, and have a great day.

Log in directly to your Outlook email https://account.microsoft.com/account and change your password if needed.
