Cannot access Outlook through thunderbird
Every time I try to add my outlook webmail account to thunderbird, it says that the username/password is incorrect. I am able to login into the webmail easily using the same credentials.

Do you have 2-step verification set up for the account?

Thank you!
Yes I did have 2-FA activated and forgot about it. Created an app password and that solved the problem.
Many thanks!
