    After the change of May 30, 2022, Google no longer supports third-party apps or devices that need to sign in from the Google account. This makes it hard for users to use third-party apps like WML and Thunderbird. As a result, you get an authentication failure error while logging from your Gmail ID in Windows Live Mail.

    • Open the Google Chrome browser on your PC, on the upper right side of your search page you’ll see “Gmail”.
    • Click on it and you’ll get redirected to your Gmail inbox.
    • Then left-click on your Google Accounts icon in the upper right corner of your inbox.
    • Now choose “Manage your Google Account“, and go to the “Security” tab.
    • Scroll down and select “2-Step Verification” from the Signing into Google box.
    • Click on the “Get Started” button, it will ask for your Gmail password, enter it and press the Next button.
    • Then enter your Phone number and verify the code, that you got through text message or phone call.
    • Now you’ll see the “Turn On” button, turn it on to enable 2-step verification.
