Signing out from Microsoft account every few days

[shadowlmd]

Does this issue occur when all extensions are disabled?: Yes

• VS Code Version: 1.76.2 (user setup)
• OS Version: Windows 10 Enterprise 22H2 19045.2604

Steps to Reproduce:

1. Sign in to Sync Settings -> Sign in with Microsoft
2. Wait for a few days
3. A notification (blue number 1 circle in lower fight corner on avatar icon above setting icon) appears asking you to sign in.

Here's what I see in Microsoft Authentication output right after starting up vscode with extensions disabled:

/duplicate of #130893

Fix already available in Insiders build and will be in stable 1.77 release

Thanks for creating this issue! We figured it's covering the same as another one we already have. Thus, we closed this one as a duplicate. You can search for similar existing issues. See also our issue reporting guidelines.

Happy Coding!

I have this exact same issue and I agree with OP that it doesn't appear the same as #130893. I will wait for the new fix for that issue and see if it fixes this problem.

I'm experiencing this issue as well, also with different symptoms than #130893. Logging in always works for me without any errors - it merely prompts me to log in again after a certain amount of time (I haven't been keeping track of how long in between, but every few days seems to be accurate).

@DanielRouxSA that's very possibly a symptom of that same issue. The next release is going out tomorrow. Give that a go, and also make sure your keychain isn't full of stuff... and if you're still seeing issues, open a new issue and we can take a closer look.
