Windows 10: None of my Microsoft Apps can connect to the Internet/My Account

I have been having an issue where all the Microsoft Apps on my PC, be it Microsoft Store, the xBox Game Launcher or the Windows Gaming Menu could connect to the Internet. Even games like Sea of Thieves, that are running over an xBox Account wouldn't work. In the xBox Game Launcher, when I pressed the Sign-In Button I just had a Blackscreen for a few seconds before getting thrown back into the main menu, where nothing was loading. The xBox Social tabs were also all saying that there was an issue, but didn't say what the issue was.The Search Bar is also not showing any Web Results and just sayin
