Windows 10: Account, Store & Activation issues.

It will not let me login via my microsoft account.

Below is a short video showing the errors windows throws my way with logging in, the app store and windows activation issues.



I have run sfc /scannow followed by DISM /Online /Cleanup-Image /RestoreHealth with it returning zero errors. And this is from a fresh installation, barely 2 hours old at this point.

Other things I have tried:

Date & Time, Region and Language are all correctly set.

Finally, 3 reboots later, it lets me login and activates windows.
