[SOLVED] Microsoft account is shown as not connected

RandomParallelsUser · Nov 14, 2023

Up and running with Parallels 19 and Windows 11, new Macbook Pro M3. Install was fine, and all seems completely functional. Installed a few PC apps, and all is still well. Having a small bug, where Microsoft account appears fully functional (OneDrive, Office 365, etc., all seem fine), but in settings, it shows that MS account isn't connected, and when I try and connect, it goes through authentication apparently properly, including sending message to my phone, right before Windows throws an error. I don't think it is anything other than a minor error at this point - as everything still seems functional and I can't identiffy any program or feature that isn't working as designed - but the error is annoying. Is it likely a Parallels problem, a Windows 11 problem, or a Macbook M3 problem? (empty box was added to cover email address)

Microsoft's update pushed late yesterday for Win11 Cumulative 2023-11 did not change anything, same error and same screenshots.

This has been resolved, with no action by me. Either Microsoft figured out there was an issue, or Parallels made a change, but either way - there is no longer an issue. Opening the Settings/Accounts on a Win11 image on a Parallels app on a MacbookPro M3 shows a microsoft account logged in properly, and all is well.
