    my friend is getting a pc pretty soon and he has an xbox account that he has been playing on for a few years, the only problem is that its his dads Microsoft account I just want to know if it would be possible to sign into xbox stuff with that Microsoft account and make a new one for basically everything else including the actual windows profile.

  3. Xbox live sign-in fail

    Hi,

    An interruption with the Xbox Live server and failure to authenticate the Xbox login information are possible reasons as to why you're encountering this issue.
    Kindly answer the following questions for us to advise the best approach in resolving this issue:

    • Are you using the same Microsoft account to sign in to the Xbox app, the games, and the Windows 10 PC?
    • Are you getting any error messages when signing in to your Xbox account and the games?

    To determine if your Xbox profile is working properly, we suggest that you sign in to
    Xbox.com. If you can sign in, that means your profile is all good. Otherwise, follow the on-screen prompts on how to update your account information.

    Can't sign in to xbox app on windows 10 laptop

    Thank you for the information. Can you tell us if you have another Microsoft accounts associated with your Windows 10? Also, can you tell us if you recently changed your account password? For us to isolate more your concern, we suggest that you sign in your
    Microsoft account online through Xbox.com to make sure that you can access it normally. If so, let's remove the account that you're trying to sign in on the Xbox app by performing the following steps:

    • On your PC, press the Windows key and select the gear icon to access
      Settings page.
    • Go to Accounts.
    • Find the Microsoft account you used to sign in to the Xbox app and select
      Remove
      .
    • Go back to the Xbox app and sign in with the Microsoft account you just removed.

    Do get back to us with the results. We'd be more than willing to provide you additional help.
