Windows 10: OneDrive "There was an Issue Signing You In"

Lately, I've been getting that little popup window that states "There was an Issue Signing You In" more times than not. I've changed my connection to "metered" a few weeks ago. Could this be the issue? Once the window pops up, all I need do is go through the sign in process and all is good . . . for a while. Sometimes it's once every few days, other times it'll be two restarts in a row. Any help/advice would be appreciated.

Hi JoelDavial,

Thank you for writing to Microsoft Community Forums.

I understand that you are unable to sign in to OneDrive on your Surface Pro. We do have a dedicated team, which supports issue related to OneDrive. Meanwhile you can try the following steps and check if that helps.

I would suggest you to check if you are able to login to
OneDrive
website. If you are able to login to the website, then please try downloading the
latest version of OneDrive
and check if that helps.

However, if the issue persist I would suggest you to contact OneDrive support team. You can follow the steps below to contact the OneDrive support team.

Sign in to OneDrive.com from any browser, click the '?' help icon on the top banner of the page and select
Email OneDrive support. Submit your question and follow the prompts to request support.

Thanks,

Windows 10 - OneDrive

Right click on the app and one of the properties has an option to not automatically start it. Uncheck, restart the computer, and it should stop. If you want to go another step further, find the OneDrive app in the start menu, right click on it and uninstall.

If that is still insufficient, there is a batch uninstaller for OneDrive available online. I can copy the code here if you need it.

 

Signing in - Sorry, there is a problem with onedrive servers

Hi Sahil,

Thank you for writing to Microsoft Community forums.

• When you say, ‘added another one on my laptop’, are you to trying to setup a new Microsoft account on the device or are you trying to link it to OneDrive?
  

If you’re facing issues with setting up a new Microsoft account on the device, I suggest you to
Create a new local administrator accountand
then convert it to a Microsoft account. Refer Sign in with Windows
10 section in the article How to sign in to
your Microsoft account for the same.

If you’re facing issues with linking an account to OneDrive, I suggest you to check the
versioning settings of your OneDrive library. Follow the suggestions by
ReneYu MSFT on the thread Sorry, there is a problem
with the OneDrive servers, dated 29 April 2016, for the same.

Hope it helps.

Let us know how it goes.

Regards,
