What is the tbauth:// protocol?

I think that Outlook uses it to get passwords because I saw this error message recently:



enter image description here



I have never seen this tbauth protocol and am curious what it is. Googling doesn't help much - the top result is a link to https://windows10dll.nirsoft.net/tbauth_dll.html which is about a DLL that has "tbauth protocol handler" in its description.



What is it used for, is it used only by Outlook, is it a public API or something internal?

          TBAuth is a Single Sign-On (SSO) protocol - note this reference in the Windows registry, pointing to the tbauth.dll you mention:



          [HKEY_CLASSES_ROOTCLSID{14654CA6-5711-491D-B89A-58E571679951}]
          @="Microsoft TBAuth Single-Sign On Protocol"

          [HKEY_CLASSES_ROOTCLSID{14654CA6-5711-491D-B89A-58E571679951}InProcServer32]
          @="C:\Windows\System32\tbauth.dll"


          The TB stands for Token Broker - this Word document on Azure Active Directory mentions it on page 59:




          Token Broker in Windows 10 is a new authentication framework that
          improves upon the former Web Application Broker in Windows 8.x and
          which is designed to provide Single Sign-On (SSO) for browser, modern
          business applications, and services.
