Windows 10: Microsoft Account Troubleshooter: not updated since Oct. 2013

Hi! I downloaded today (2020-07-14) the tool ( microsoftaccounts.diagcab ) and opened it with 7-zip. The files there are from Oct. 2013. It means that the tool might not know about changes to account authentication. Therefore, it may report wrong conclusions/detections.

The tutorials provided are just a list of troubleshooting steps. Use only the steps which apply to you.

Since none of the troubleshooting steps here worked, I'd suggest you do a Clean install.

troubleshoot with login to Microsoft account

Hi,

Sorry for the delay.

We understand the frustration when things don't work as they should. Let's work together in fixing this issue. As the issue is with respect to Microsoft Account I suggest that you run the
Microsoft Accounts troubleshooter
and check if it helps.

If the issue persists then you may run the Deployment Image Servicing and Management (DISM) tool which fixes the Windows corruption error if there are any. Follow the steps:

• • 
    Press Windows+X.
    
  • 
    Click on Command Prompt (Admin).
    
  • 
    Type the command DISM.exe /Online /Cleanup-image /Restorehealth
    and hit Enter.
    

System File Checker is a utility in Windows that allows users to scan for corruptions in Windows system files and restore corrupted files.

You can follow the steps in the following article:
