Windows 10: Cant login into my microsoft account on my windows pc

I just updated to windows 11 today and I also updated some parts to my pcCPU, new motherboard, and new ram. Everything was working smoothly but I cant log back in to my Microsoft account and cant use anything Microsoft related as a result. I am a paying PC game pass user so this is a big issue for me. Is there any fix?
