Encountered the same issue today after resetting passwords of Office 365 users, 2 days ago.
Solved in 4 steps:
1. deletting all registered account under legacy control panel->credentials manager->Windows credentials
2. opening Word, disconnecting *all* account under File->Account
3. Disconnecting all account under modern control panel->accounts->Work and school account
4. Reboot
After that just reopen Word, simply reconnect your account, clic ok on onedrive prompt (if any), and open Outlook, enter credentials of any additional mailbox (if any) and that's it !
