Windows 10: Issues adding adding microsoft account to email & accounts

Some programs requiring microsoft account signin were not working so I created a local account, signed out and removed my microsoft account. Now when I try to add any microsoft account, I get this error.

Problem adding a POP3 email account

My apologies, got it working but I'd never dream of using it.
I have to click this




then select either my MS account or my POP account before I can view my emails.

It's horrible, it's like a phone app. Thunderbird for me.

 

Problem adding a POP3 email account


It does work fine with pop.





It has a problem with 2 step authentication. What is the domain?
Is your username the same as email address?

 

Disable adding email/Microsoft accounts to Windows 10

Is there a way to prevent people from adding any email/Microsoft accounts to Windows 10?
I found the option in GPEdit
Local -> Computer Config -> Windows Settings -> Security Options -> Accounts: Block Microsoft accounts

I set it to Users can't add Microsoft accounts, ran gpupdate /force and restarted the system.
Still am able to add email accounts, and a Microsoft one, if indirectly for the later.
