I’m pretty confident, then, that these two things are true for most people: This is not a new problem. We highly recommend that administrators configure their sites to require passwords for attendees joining through phones or video devices as well. Will give that a go and see if I am still pestered by the notifications. Now Microsoft puts up a big notice in the Office 365 admin dashboard urging admins to change the password policy to “never expire.”. It is quickly becoming a major issue. Exactly what I needed. I suspect that the message will go away once I hand over my Visa card #, but I won’t.
I am calling my particular flavor of this nuisance resolved. If you have anything unclear, please feel free to let us know. Password enforcement applies to Webex Meetings, Webex Events, and Webex Training. You can follow the question or vote as helpful, but you cannot reply to this thread.
Microsoft is putting finishing touches on a new Windows app, Your Phone, which will sync your Android phone to your computer and be Fabulously Useful ™. In my case, unfortunately, changing the “Shared experiences” settings has not done away with the nuisance. User's post on May 4, 2020 If I go onto the web and use outlook.com there is no issue it is just on the pc's that it keeps asking for a password, I have tried clearing the cache and everything that has been suggested on forums and still no success.
Click on Shared Experiences in the left column. Your right. Microsoft was badly burned when it missed the transition to mobile devices.
Turn off Nearby Sharing and Share across devices. After months, I then did a search in the Windows search bar for work account, and came to an ‘Access Work or School’. After disabling this setting the “account problem” notification was banished once more. For a short while, it was effectively impossible to change that; then for a while it could be set to longer periods or set to never require changes, but it could only be done with Powershell commands. Whenever I clicked Fix Now, I’d go to a login dialog with my work account that uses Office 365. Sometimes a minor gap in quality control, such as the lack of proper upgrade testing can have annoying consequences. MS made some mistakes but mainly by not following-thru with their ideas and being late with others. Thank you for this very helpful (and very funny) article that puts things into a proper perspective. Be careful out there! Turning off Shared experiences didn’t work. I’m getting that message nonstop on my computers in the last thirty days, with both of the sharing options set firmly off. It sounds like your user settings are getting lost or confused. People in the building hold up a sign: “You are in a helicopter”
Account settings are correct as web mail is accessible with the same credentials but Outlook keeps rejecting the password. (After “Fixing” my “need to up-date my Account”. Fingers crossed. Hell no.
Those scheduled before January 10, 2020 will not be affected.

It was so unsuccessful that when Apple introduced the iPhone, the world forgot about Microsoft’s mobile efforts.
Im trying Shared Experiences method. Thanks, Rich and Bruce. Disabling this setting prevents many Start-up programs from starting until AFTER you log in (just like Windows XP used to do), including OneDrive synchronisation which I think is the problem application here. Waiting patiently.. I have had much the same frustrations and annoyances, using my MS Surface Pro4.
