  1. Cannot sign into Microsoft Store under Child Account


    I wanted to put Minecraft on my son's computer. Right now, he uses the computer as his own account, as a Child under my account as Family.


    I have a key for the software, so I opened the store to redeem the code. I don't get that option at all when I'm signed in as him. So, I tried to sign in. When I click Sign In, nothing happens. No error messages, nothing.


    I then logged in as my profile, and the store works like normal. I was afraid to redeem the code under my sign on because I wasn't sure he could access from his profile. So, I logged off as me and went back in under his profile. Still didn't let me in to the store. I tried to Google for answers but I didn't find anything.


    I then tried logging in through the Xbox app. Again, wouldn't do anything when I clicked Sign In. I made sure that he had a Gamer Tag, thinking maybe that was the problem (via web site). Still wouldn't let me log in to Xbox app.


    I'm assuming his has something to do with the Child Profile, but there's no way I'm letting him on the PC with Admin credentials (mine).


    I've checked my Family Account settings and I don't see an option to allow for the store.


    How can I download this game and have it usable on his profile?


    (I have Windows 10.)

  2. Child account

    I did set up a Child account, I did fallow all the steps window ask, the account say that the child is in the family, when I tried to log, give me the message "The Profile Service service Failed The Sign-in. User Profile cannot be loaded".

    Answering your questions:

    • Did you make any changes to the child account prior to the issue? No, I did not make any changes.
    • Since when you are facing this issue? Right from the start. I never got to login.
    • Are you able to login with other child accounts on the computer? No
    I suggest you to restart the computer once and check if you are able to login to the computer. I did, the same problem, I do not have any problem with my account or my wife.

    Thank you for your help.

    David.

    Yes. When you sign in to the Store with a Microsoft account like in step 5 in Option Two of the tutorial below instead of switching to a Microsoft account you will and stay a local account.
