  1. Could not sign in Microsoft Account in Windows 11 Settings


    I have a Microsoft Account logged in on my Windows 11 laptop. Then one day it said there's some issue with my account and ask me to reverify it. I tried re-entering the password to verify but it doesn't work.Then I logged out my Microsoft Account and use a Local Account instead.However, when I try to sign in a Microsoft Account in settings, it keeps giving me the following error:I can't login any Microsoft account on this laptop like Office, Microsoft Edge etc. It seems that they all need to login to the Windows first.

    :)

  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

  4. Could not sign in Microsoft Account in Windows 11 Settings

    Microsoft account set as a work account and a Microsoft Account

    Hi Dean,

    As per the description, I suggest that you sign out of one of the accounts and sign into the account again. This will help us to know if the account used in either of the account is not the same.

    To sign-out of the Microsoft Account follow the steps below

    • Sign in to your Microsoft account on Windows 10.
    • Click Start and then PC settings.
    • Click Users and accounts and under Your Profile click Disconnect on the right of the screen.
    • Enter your Microsoft account's password, and click on Next.
    • Type in a Username, Password, and Password Hint that you want set for your Local account and click
      Next. Click on Sign out and Finish button.

    Your reply is very important to ensure a proper resolution. Please get back to us with the above information to assist you accordingly.
