    Can't Sign in to Microsoft Account on New Computer


    I recently did set up on a computer whose entire board was replaced by the manufacturer. It was signed into my account previously, but is essentially an entirely new computer at this point, meaning I had to do set up with it once it returned to me. When I went through the initial set up, it told me that Microsoft couldn't sign me in and that it's "probably something on our end". I didn't think anything of it and finished set up, but I've been trying for several days now to fix this issue with no luck. Going to settings and clicking "sign in with Microsoft account instead" gives me the same mes

  2. sign into microsoft account glitch

    Hi Micheal,

    Welcome to Microsoft Community.

    • Is this the only account on the computer?
    • Was this account upgraded from previous version of Windows?

    It looks like you are using a local account. I suggest you follow these steps:

    • Click on search in taskbar and type account.
    • Click on Accounts.
    • Now, under Your account, click on Sign in with Microsoft account instead.
    • Enter your Local account password for confirmation and then follow the screen instruction.
    • Enter User name credentials for your the new Microsoft account and click OK.

    Hope this helps.

    Regards

    • Your phone is in a "bad state."
