Here's something a lot of companies could learn from Nintendo of all companies. The Switch 2 console has had a text to speech feature, but not for the first time setup. The newest firmware fixed this and now you can hold down a button to turn on speech. Except, any units in the wild won't have this for a while and be on an older version. So what'd Nintendo do? They have a gigantic article on their website detailing how to do the setup blind up to the point where the console will download the update. It even goes into details on how the language select screen looks like, or how to connect an ethernet cable or USB keyboard to enter a wifi password. https://en-americas-support.nintendo.com/app/answers/detail/a_id/68477/session/L2F2LzEvdGltZS8xNzczNzM0MDQ1L2dlbi8xNzczNzM0MDQ1L3NpZC9mVUpLWHM3VlVyS1Q0QkpIVXZOMm9hSndZV05LNWslN0VmakVIcUx3MjFQYkV1bE5pUnQzVE9rTFc3a0t1QkI2azZFUWIyTTZibW9qd2UlN0VITm01NUo3UmlfNFlXVjF6QjFZYzBLblNVTkhZeklNRWptenNBUjlwcTR3JTIxJTIx

Sysadmins/techs, if you or a user is having trouble logging into Gmail via classic Outlook, close the app and remove the credentials from Windows Credential Manager. You should then be prompted to sign in the next time you open Outlook, after which it should work as expected.
