Hello,
I am unable to login to Exchange Online Powershell using the following steps. I am a global admin and the Powershell is opened in elevated mode.
I enter the code below
Connect-ExchangeOnline -UserPrincipalName <mylogin>
Then the login opens and I select my user
It loads for some time then closes and I get the following message in Powershell
This V3 EXO PowerShell module contains new REST API backed Exchange Online cmdlets which doesn't require WinRM for Client-Server communication. You can now run these cmdlets after turning off WinRM Basic Auth in your client machine thus making it more secure. Unlike the EXO* prefixed cmdlets, the cmdlets in this module support full functional parity with the RPS (V1) cmdlets. V3 cmdlets in the downloaded module are resilient to transient failures, handling retries and throttling errors inherently. REST backed EOP and SCC cmdlets are also available in the V3 module. Similar to EXO, the cmdlets can be run without WinRM basic auth enabled. For more information check https://aka.ms/exov3-module

Locked Question. You can vote on whether it's helpful, but you can't add comments or replies or follow the question.
That's the standard "banner" message, you can ignore it. What happens after? Are you getting any error messages? Can you run cmdlets?
Hi Vasil, nothing happens. The window closes and it comes back to the prompt in Powershell.
That's pretty much what should happen. Have you tried running any cmdlet, say Get-Mailbox?

This should be the normal behavior after you connected to Exchange Online Powershell.
Please have a check if you can run Exchange Online cmdlets and get result as suggested.
Sorry for my late reply. Now the login screen only flashes, I don't get to enter my credentials. Then I get this message.
I am able to run cmdlets now. I tried the get-mailbox and it worked. Thanks.

Horrible banner massage!

Yes, if I have to Google/check AI to see what it means, it's bad. I really had to double check if I could actually do anything or was locked out (like half the time happens trying to connect to cloud stuff)
