Windows 10: Cannot login to Windows with Microsoft account - Store fails with error code

I have had problems with my user account since doing the 1903 upgrade. I am now using a Local Account linked to my C:/Users folder. It is stable but will not convert to a signed-in MS account, as I get a Store error every time I try to upgrade. this is from the log, after the Store tries to open from the Settings: Accounts: Your info screen

Games for Windows Live failing to login error code 80048821

Need some help as pulling my hair out with this *Mad .

I have had my GFWL account for quite a while, not a regular user.

A day or so ago when I went to have a play on GTA IV it would not login to the account. All I get is a nonsense message.

I can login to Xbox live (I don't own one) and Windows Live via browser in OS. I then uninstalled GFWL via control panel in windows 7, I then reinstalled it and still get the issue.

Then I started routing around in AppData\Local\Microsoft\GFWLive\ and found a file (GFWLClient01.log), latest error (all are the same in log from past attempts) it has this in it:-

2016-09-27T13:17:19 Error SignIn Failed to sign in to live id with 0x80048821. {Exception: {Type: Microsoft.GamesForWindows.XLiveServices.LiveIdWrapper.IDCRLException} {Message: Authentication failed.} {Source: XLiveServices} {Stack Trace: at Microsoft.GamesForWindows.XLiveServices.LiveId.Authenticate() at Microsoft.GamesForWindows.XLiveServices.LiveId.Authenticate(String memberName, SecureString password) at Microsoft.GamesForWindows.XLiveServices.LocalGamer.SignIn(SigninData signinData)} {Target Site: Boolean Authenticate()} {IDCRL Error Message: IDCRL Exception In Method: Authenticate IDCRL ErrorCode : 80048821}}

I tried using the support chat feature on XBox live site and I can't chat to staff as my name is not filtering through from Windows live account (no way to set on support chat page or XBox live site).

Microsoft Store not working error Code: 0x80131500

Hi
Thanks for suggestions
I had tried all except re registering MSoft Store , but that unfortunately did not work .

Very intermittently use SurfEasy VPN, but last time used pre dated this build & problem by some time.

Have built pc systems /rebuilt windows op system literally100's times over 25 years for myself and others, and troubleshooted most known problems but this looks like a reinstall.
Not listed in Microsoft web notice as ongoing issue involving current build.

Only had Store problem once before since it was introduced years ago, and that was easily resolved !
