## Symptoms
15-
16-
When you open [Dynamics 365 App for Outlook](/dynamics365/outlook-app/overview), it prompts you to allow an authentication pop-up. After you allow it, the pop-up opens. However, it's blank and prevents you from selecting an account to authenticate and sign in.

## Cause

This behavior is due to a recent regression that has been mitigated. However, users who have previously signed in might still experience this issue until they clear their session and sign in again.
