Windows 10: Windows 11 keeps kicking me back to login screen after signing in

Hello, I have an issue where nothing on the internet helps. Here's some backstory: I used to have an issue that forced me to reset my PC and I thought that this is going to fix the issues but now I have a new one! How great, thank you Microsoft. So, the issue is: first when I sign in it tells me that I need to search for app in the store, I click Yes, and after that when I sign in when the Microsoft sign-in box appears, the password is correct, it starts to sign me in, but then Windows kicks me back to Welcome Screen / Login Screen and this creates a sign in loop that doesn't let me access my

Lock vs Login screen screenshot

Hi Josey -

Thanks for the quick reply. While your suggestion does change the sign in process, it doesn't address the differing screenshot question. Following the steps doesn't make the login screenshot the same as the Lock screenshot. As I mentioned, I can't even find the screenshots being used for both screens.

Still looking a solution to this. Open to any other suggestions you might have to the problem. Thanks!

Can't sign into PC Game Pass Ultimate, looping login action that keep me signed out

I can't login to my PC Game Pass account as it keeps silently failing and keeps me logged out.

Steps: it tells me to sign in, I press it, it shows the "Welcome back USERNAME" and I press "Let's go" and it returns back to not being logged in.

If I use the "try a different Microsoft account" it gives me the same problem.

I have tried the steps listed in

Redirecting (repair, reset, reinstall). Additionally I have triggered a password reset and changed my password to attempt the auto login to fail.
