    Can't sign into file explorer windows 11.


    The account which held the license for microsoft office is an old college account which no longer exists, when i attempt to login to file explorer, it wants me to use this email, and does not allow me to use my personal microsoft account. When I try to sign in, I get this message:https://imgur.com/a/V4AH5tdwhats strange is i dont know how the school account is still linked, in the settings and everywhere else on my pc, the correct account is signed in and linked as the administrator. There are no additional or "other" accounts to remove from my PC.

    :)

    Pressing “Windows+Pause Break” (it’s up there next to scroll lock) opens the “System” Window.

    Windows 10: In the new version of Windows, Explorer has a section called Quick Access. This includes your frequent folders and recent files. Explorer defaults to opening this page when you open a new window. If you’d rather open the usual This PC, with links to your drives and library folders, follow these steps:

    • Open a new Explorer window.
    • Click View in the ribbon.
    • Click Options.
    • Under General, next to “Open File Explorer to:” choose “This PC.”
    • Click OK

    Can't sign into file explorer windows 11.

    why won't explorer 11 let me sign into ebay?

    Hi,

    I appreciate if you could answer to a few questions to narrow down to the issue.

    • What exactly happens when you try to sign in?
    • Is the issue specific to a particular website?
    • Did you try the same from a different browser?
    • Did you install any third party security application?
    As an initial troubleshooting step, I suggest you to clear the browsing history cookies and caches and check if the devices are reflecting under the account.

    View and delete your browsing history in Internet Explorer - Microsoft Support

    If the issue still persists, Please get back to us with the required information. We will be happy to help.

    Thank you.
