    Hi Sommer,

    Good day and thank you for taking the time to provide the detailed error information.

    Based on the error details you shared, it appears that Outlook on the web is encountering a problem during the sign-in and startup process. While the error code itself does not point to a single confirmed cause, it may be related to an authentication session issue, cached browser data, or an account-side problem that is preventing Outlook from loading successfully.

    With this in mind, you may wish to try the following steps:


    1/ Sign out of all Microsoft sessions and sign in again

    • Open your browser and sign out of all Microsoft services.
    • Close all browser windows completely.
    • Reopen the browser and sign back in to your account.
    • Then try accessing Outlook again.

    2/ Clear browser cache and cookies

    • In your browser settings, clear all cached images/files and cookies.
    • Close the browser after the cleanup is complete.
    • Open a new browser session and try signing in again.

    3/ Test using an InPrivate or Incognito window or a different browser

    Open an InPrivate window or different browser, then sign in to Outlook from these browsing windows and check whether the issue persists.


    4/ Test from another device or network

    • Try signing in from a different computer, tablet, or mobile phone.
    • Alternatively, connect to a different network, such as a mobile hotspot.
    • This can help identify whether the issue is specific to a particular device or network environment.

    5/ Contact your IT admin

    Should the issue persist, you may wish to contact your IT administrator for further assistance by reviewing the following areas:

    In case you do not know who your IT admin is, kindly refer to this article: How do I find my Microsoft 365 admin? - Microsoft Support

    I hope the information provided helps guide you in the right direction. Please feel free to share any additional details if you need further assistance.
