Windows 10: Cant login to Microsoft Account at windows 10 setup

Hey,


I've been trying to login to my Microsoft Account when I start the basic setup after formatting the pc using the media creation tool from the Microsoft page.


I thought it was a driver issue so I removed everything including the GPU, hdds,ssd and only kept one ssd to test it out. I also removed the internal USB header incase it was causing the issue. No luck.


I tried a 2018 version of the windows installer I had laying around and its the same problem.


As soon as it asks me to sign in to use windows it shows me a bad designed white html page with the username login on the top left. When I login it justs says "who's using this pc" meaning that it decided to create an offline account.

:)

Unable to login with microsoft account

Hi,

Issues with signing in to a Microsoft account are usually happening due
the two-step verification is turned on or you are traveling or using a new device.
For us to provide an accurate resolution, we would need you to answer the following questions:

• Are you experiencing the sign in issue upon logging in to your computer?
• Are you having the same error when you are trying to sign in to your Microsoft account using a web browser? If yes, is the same issue happening even when you are using other web browsers?
• Have you made any changes to your account before this issue occurred?
• What changes have you made to your computer prior to having this issue?

In the meantime, we suggest that you read and follow the suggested troubleshooting steps on these links:

• When you can't sign in to your Microsoft account.
• We can't sign in to your account.

We are looking forward to your response.

 

Loophole Lets You Freely Upgrade to Windows 10 After Offer Expiry

If you upgrade your 7 install to 10, which is worth it IMHO, make sure you link to a Microsoft Account. Otherwise you might not be able to easily regain the key if they block using 7 keys in the future.

You don't need to use the Microsoft account as your profile on so you can still bypass logging in at setup and creating a local account. All you gotta do to link your 10 account to your MS install (if you choose not to use your MS account as your profile), is to simply do the following:

• Click Start
• Click Settings
• Click Update and Security
• Click Activation
• As or with Admin permissions, click Add Account
• Login with MS Account credentials.

Then you should see a message that reads:
