After spending hours looking for a fix to that issue, I found your video. I made the change in Google settings you described in the first scenario and now have access to Email in Outlook 2007 again. I think the reason I lost the ability to get Email was because I got a message from Google saying that they blocked a sign-in attempt. I clicked on "SECURE YOUR ACCOUNT" which changed the Email setting to deny access to less secure apps. Thanks for your posting.
Harish: I literally have just spent 2 1/2 hours trying to get rid of that pop up screen. I corrected it using the first reason: disabled apps to less secure apps. It fixed immediately. Thank you so much for taking the time to post this video. It really helped me.
I don't get it why such big corporations like Microsoft and Gmail couldn't explain it to me via their help support in such a simple way as You did... just don't get it... Thank You so much!
Dude you saved my life! I had this problem for weeks in my personal email account. i looked everywhere, even asked my geek friends! no one could fix this! it was a simple click exactly where you said! i don't know how my outlook got corrupted but my other IT guy said cuz i didn't turn my laptop off much, the memory and other progs gets screwed up, which was right, because before this error, i couldn't do a search in my outlook 2007 and got indexing errors, which i could not fix! and then he told me to turn off my laptop and reboot...duh, which i thought i did and reset the settings in outlook and it worked! so i am a happy camper. i was so upset that i had to use gmail, which i dont like i rather use outlook, easier to find stuff! So thank you so much, I subscribed, and will tell my teenage son to subscribe. he's a geek, but doesn't use outlook! lol you did a great job for me at no cost! I'm forever grateful.! may I add this: i even re-installed outlook and spent like 15 hours trying to fix this. i don't know how your vid came up but today, I am glad it did! I knew we could resolve this, i just had to dig a little deeper. so great!
Thank Harris. I was having same problem while trying to access gmail on outlook. Using your suggestions, now I am able access gmail account. Excellent very practical way of explaining the fix.
I lost all the hope , but the guy who made this video is AWESOME THANKS for the help buddy . I was behind this issue from last 1 month , really thank you
Dear Harish, Bless you for creating this video. It fixed the most annoying problem ever conceived by Google. Although your video is from 2016 and it is now 2020, your information is still accurate, but it took a little digging to find the relevant settings now that Google has moved some things around. If you ever need something to do, could you please make a new video with the newer look? Thank you!
Outlook 2013 suddenly started having this problem with AOL mail in July 2021. The in app password solved the problem. Thank you so much! Could not find anything on Microsoft and AOL websites that provieded any help to resolving this.
Thanks for the Great Help Mr.Harish. Purchasing the Google Account got wasted for 3-Months & couldn't configured due to too many attempts for Outlook Configuration of your 2nd Point. Really Helped.
Dude!!! This makes so much sense. A simple solution to a confounding problem. Thanks for simplifying my life and helping me to use Outlook again. You ROCK!!!! Also thanks for telling me the problem up front, so I didn't need to watch the entire video to fix it.
Thanks, worked for me. Was driving me crazy. My setting were all fine. The only thing I changed recently was my Google password. I actually had to apply the 2 step verification to get a password and make Outlook work again.
My special thanks to Harish ji.. I was successfully able to configure Outlook on my laptop using the video. It has been beautifully explained and is very systematic and transparent in nature. Keep uploading new videos. God Bless You. My best wishes. Regards. Deepinder Singh Chawla
Very helpful. Searched a long time for an answer to this problem, and your video was the first to mention the access-to-less-secure-apps-setting issue. I made that change and presto, problem solved. Thank you.
Thank you Harish, I have been battling this for some time now. I cannot understand why Google would consider this an unsecure app. I also use Gmail and outlook express. Great video.
Brilliant! I spent HOURS trying to sort this out before coming to your marvellous solution. So simple! Didn't understand the many incomprehensible email messages from Google.
A HUGE thumbs up. I had gotten a security notice from Google about less secured pass, but Outlook was not mentioned. So you kept me from tearing the rest of my hair out!
Thank you Harish. Problem solved. Clear and concise instructions on how to fix this most annoying problem. I had spent hours trying to fix this before I watched your video. Well done!!
Thank you sooo much Hrish brother. GOD bless you. very helpful and clear explanation. It helped alot of people. huge respect from pakistan. keep sharing knowledge like this. very sad to see some people dislike the video. people dont have guts to appreciate some one effort with big heart. again its highly appreciated.Thumbs up bro
Thank you, that is unbelievable that google account settings are preventing me to log into outlook, and no trace of that problem in Microsoft homepage...
Thank you so much I followed your instructions and configured outlook. I have been shuttling so called technicians unsuccessfully. Finally you rescued me Thank you sir
Thank you! I've spent the last two hours trying to unravel this mystery. Less than a minute into your video and... problem solved! ("The most common reason...")
Thank you very much. I have seen many videos on fixes for this problem but somehow they did not work. Your methods work. The explanations and procedures are clear and concise, and will yield the desired result. I have subscribed to your channel. Keep the good videos coming.
Thank you for the excellent details - problem was denied access on less secure - but I did not turn it off - me thinks Google made that decision - tuned on allow and all came good. Much appreciated.
Thank you very much Harish!! it worked. I went trough various videos from other people and yours was the one that helped me and helped me out following step by step. you are amazing!!
Thank you so much, I have been following different videos on how to fix the problem without success, and getting very frustrated, but when I got to yours problem solved straight away, thank you so much
Big thanks from an oldy, problem was causing me stress that i did not need your clear explanation pionted out what i did following Googles recommendations. all is good now, you are the man, Thanks
Thank you, Thank you, Thank you...after so much arrghhh and Ughhh...I found your video and a quick google search how to change the settings and it worked. Thanks again!!!
Harish, one question though...should I unclick that now that its fixed, cuz its saying this: Google will continue to block sign-in attempts from the app you're using because it has known security problems or is out of date. You can continue to use this app by allowing access to less secure apps, but this may leave your account vulnerable. is my computer still vulnerable leaving that unchecked? thanks again,.
You can enable "two step verification method" to get login to Gmail from google settings.Don't forget to register and verify your mobile number berfore that. bcoz after this when so ever you will login google will send you verification code on your number. here is trick now, Now you need to generate app password for your mail client from google settings and that password will be used here in outlook to setup gmail as your gmail login password(App password ). Thnks a lot for appreciating my efforts. God Bless You...
Thank you for your help! I hate Google! They thought someone else accessed my account and forced me to turn on 2-Step Verification. It locked me out of my Outlook for the better part of a day and then screwed up another Gmail account I had. Ugh!
thank you so so so much you are the best I swear I watched many video but didn't work you are the one who worked with I swear you are the best and I will subscribe
This video is very clear with great instruction but I seem to have a different version of windows as the account settings on my google page are different. I was able to find a different route to get to the "signing in to google" but the toggle for allow less secure apps is not there. Any suggestions?
Update, I just did a search in google key wording allow less secure apps and found it! Great instruction, thanks again! So happy to have this finally resolved!
Here is what worked for me: Go to Tools, Account Settings,Log on Information, change User Name and Password. Go back to Outlook press Send / Receive, if it works go back and delete old Logon:-)
if i install a new windows on my desktop. will i have to reinstall my outlook lets say i choose an option to keep all files when installing a new os? will it ask for my outlook login credentials?
Sir, facing this problem for another email that for private company domain, So cant access web mail to see setting of less secured app is allowed or not. so please give me solution.
my issue is this error , do you have any solution Send test e-mail message: Outlook cannot connect to your outgoing (SMTP) e-mail server. If you continue to receive this message, contact your server administrator or Internet service provider (ISP).

Neither Google or Outlook (after 2 hours of searching) offered this solution. And it worked!!! Thank you!

Awesome Harish!!!! Very comprehensible...thanks so much!!!!!!! You ROCK!!!!!!!
Thank you so much... simple thing like resetting the less secure app access did it... what a pain i wasted so much time again thanks!
Harish, one question though...should I unclick that now that its fixed, cuz its saying this:
Google will continue to block sign-in attempts from the app you're using because it has known security problems or is out of date. You can continue to use this app by allowing access to less secure apps, but this may leave your account vulnerable.
is my computer still vulnerable leaving that unchecked? thanks again,.
