Windows 10: Microsoft Sign in failure

When I sign in, as an authorized user not the administrator, using my valid password, I initially see the Welcome then Preparing Windows, then I see my desktop, but I get a Message Box titled "We can't sign in to your account" and the message states, "We can't sign in to your account, This problem can often be fixed by signing out of your account and then signing back in.

Sign in failure

Hello IanMcCaffery,

Thank you for visiting Microsoft Community and providing us with the detailed description about the issue.

As per the description, I understand that you are experiencing issue with sign in failure after creating a new user account in Windows 10.

I certainly understand your concern and will try my best to help you.

This issue can be caused due to pending updates or corrupted user account. Let’s try to identify the actual cause and troubleshoot accordingly.

I would suggest you to check the following settings and may sure they are all aligned to the same languages and region:

• 
  Go toSettings
  > Time & Language > Region & Language.
  
• 
  Check the Country or region settings.
  
• 
  Check the Windows display language
  (set as English US) settings.
  
• 
  Then go to Settings >
  System > Speech.
  
• 
  Check the Spoken language
  (set as English US) settings.
  

If the above settings are correct and the issue still persists, then you may
convert the Microsoft account to a Local account and switch back to Microsoft account
and check if it helps. To do so, follow the steps given below:

Step 1:

Convert the Microsoft account to a Local account:

• 
  Sign in to your
  Microsoft account on Windows 10 Insider Preview.
  
• 
  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.
  

Step 2:

Switch back Local account to Microsoft account:

• 
  On the newly converted Local account, click Start and then PC Settings.
  
• 
  Click Users and accounts and under Your Profile click Connect to a Microsoft account.
  
• 
  Enter the Microsoft account ID and Password and click Next.
  
• 
  Choose if you want OneDrive as your default file saving location, click Next.
  
• 
  Click Switch.
  

The above steps holds good for Windows 10 as well.

Regarding the issue when you shut down your system it restarts,
I would suggest you to refer to the suggestions provided by

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
