This doesn’t work for me either. I send my credentials, but it still brings up a window asking me to sign into my Microsoft account, which kind of defeats the point. I then input the very same credentials and it signs me in. Strange that it doesn’t work for me, but well that’s just my luck

For me, this does not work. The “Connect-MsolService” call simply ignores the passed credentials as if they weren’t specified at all.

Maybe this is because I specified an account with activated 2FA.

If it’s a script for techs to use, I usually put in something a bit lazy:
$upn = get-aduser $env:username | select -expandproperty userprincipalname
$creds = get-credential $upn; connect-msolservice -credential $creds

Just means people don’t have to enter their email haha, without any security risk! 🙂
You can do something similar with Azure cmdlets (remove get-credential as it doesn’t support MFA)
