ONL_E_FORCESIGNIN: isolate the owning operation
ONL_E_FORCESIGNIN (0x80860006) is not a catch-all media error. It reports that the Online ID provider requires an explicit interactive sign-in instead of continuing with cached credentials.
Do not discard these details
- Capture cached-token age/state, account identity, authentication UI decision, provider correlation ID, and the API that requested silent sign-in.
- Preserve the first HRESULT or lower-level result produced before cleanup or automatic retry changes the state.
How to prove the correction
Perform the required interactive sign-in and then repeat the original operation with the refreshed account state.
