Hi G_CR_23
We have had a similar issue since Power BI/ Microsoft 365 authentification got integrated.
If your Power BI password and 365 don't match it gets confused and circles around.
I also use multiple different accounts PBI accounts and that clashes horribly with 365.
For the first issue we use remote desktops that reset their passwords nightly. After setting the new passwords we reauthorise the Shared Exprience on the computers.
The second issue occurs when Microsoft 365 decides to remember both accounts. Check under Work & School accounts that it only remembers one. To help prevent it in future I choose "Only on this app" when logging in to Power BI.
Good luck!
