    Dear Anmar Brembali,

    According to your description, it appears that you are trying to join a meeting hosted by an organization account. Some organizations don't allow people using a personal Microsoft account to join their meetings. This restriction is set on the organizer's side, not on your side, so unfortunately, it isn't something you can change from your end.

    In this case, you can try the following:

    1. Open the meeting link and select Join without using an account.
    2. Enter the display name you would like to use, then select Join now.
    3. If you don't see this option, or you are still blocked, the organizer's IT admin would need to allow anonymous or guest access or provide you with an account that is permitted to join. You could also ask the organizer to confirm this in their meeting settings.

    I would also suggest reviewing these two articles below to see whether the message you receive matches one of the errors they describe. If it does, you can follow the steps provided.

    Please correct me if I'm misunderstanding. Thank you very much for your valuable time and your cooperation.
