It sounds like you're experiencing account lockout issues due to multiple incorrect password attempts. When an account is locked out, it typically happens after a certain number of failed sign-in attempts. In your case, you may need to wait for the lockout period to expire before trying again.
Here are some steps you can take to resolve the issue:
- Wait for the Lockout Period: If your account is locked out, it usually remains locked for a specific duration (often 30 minutes by default). After this time, you should be able to attempt to log in again.
- Reset Your Password: Since you mentioned that you can send a PIN to your Gmail account, make sure you follow the instructions carefully to reset your password. Ensure that you are entering the new password correctly and that there are no extra spaces or mistakes.
- Check for Orphaned Passkeys: If you are using a passkey, ensure that there are no orphaned passkeys on your device that might be causing issues. You may need to remove any old passkeys and re-register a new one.
- Contact Support: If you continue to have problems, consider reaching out to Microsoft support for further assistance. They can help you regain access to your account.
Make sure to keep your recovery information up to date to avoid similar issues in the future.
