Windows 11 requests login to your Microsoft Account every two weeks because it checks for issues with your sign-in. This occurs across all your devices.

I don't have a specific source for my Win 11 licenses, as I don't make purchases.

Bought during my Windows 7 installation?

Did you use your Windows 7 licenses on the Windows 11 installations? And where did these 7 licenses originate from? I'm wondering since none of my Windows 10 or 11 systems need frequent logins to the MS account. They're there, but I don't have to access them all the time.

I purchased the retail box. This occurs occasionally.

I found out what was wrong. I altered my Microsoft account password about a week ago, but I didn't update it for every device. The systems were set to auto-login. Once I changed the password on each machine, the issue disappeared.
