Sign in with a Microsoft account instead creates a new profile in Windows 10

Hello,

A quick question before we proceed:

Have you setup a PIN for your local account?

If yes, I suggest you to use the Pin to finish configuring your Microsoft account.

If you have not set a PIN for your local you may remove the PIN option. You may follow the steps below to remove PIN.

• 
  Go to settings and click on the Accounts option.
  
• 
  Now select sign in option and remove the PIN.
  

You may also login to your Gmail account and check if you get any verification code while configuring.

Hope it helps. Do let us know if your issue is resolved. For any further query, feel free to contact us.

Thank you.

Account Pin -not sign in pin

Thank you for the clarification, Marcos. Please provide more information by answering the following:

• May I know if your child has his own Microsoft account?
• Is he using his own Microsoft account to log in to the PC (PC where you want to install the game - let's name it PC 2) or is he using a local account?
• Is it a standard user account or an account with admin rights?
• If your child does not have a Microsoft account, whose account is logged in to PC 2? Is it your own Microsoft account?
• Which Windows edition is it? Is it Windows Home or Pro?

Sorry about the list of questions. However, knowing these details will help us figure this out.

Please note that the Windows Store Licensing Model allows you to install apps across a number of devices and users. Windows 10 Store apps will be limited to 10 device installs using the same Microsoft account. However, before you can actually share
your apps, there are a few things you need to do first.

If you are logged in to PC 2 using your own Microsoft account and not a local account, you will be asked to enter the PIN you set up for PC 2.





You mentioned that you have created a PIN but it's not helping. Are you getting an error when entering the PIN? If so, can you send a screenshot of the error? If you are certain that you're using the correct PIN, I suggest deleting
everything within the NGC folder and try to add a new PIN. Deleting this folder often resolves PIN issues in Windows 10. Please follow these steps:

1. Open File Explorer and browse to this location: C:\Windows\ServiceProfiles\LocalService\AppData\Local\Microsoft\NGC
2. Delete everything within that folder. To do so, you must be logged in as an administrator.
3. Go to Settings > Accounts > Sign-in Options.
4. Click Add a PIN and add a new PIN for your account.

If you continue to have this issue even after performing the above steps, please reply to this thread. The system will notify me so I can get back to you and provide you more answers.
