    Problem signing in to Cortana

    Cortana sign in

    Hello,

    I am sorry for the inconvenience caused to you.

    It would be helpful if you could reply to these questions to assist you further.


    • Can you give the exact steps that lead to this happening?

    • Is this when you try to sign in to Cortana for the first time and when you sign in with an MSA?

    • Are you able to sign in to your Microsoft account from places other than Cortana?
    Cortana is the inbuilt app which comes in Windows 10 and Windows Phone. In order to use Cortana app, you need to sign in to Microsoft account so that we can use Cortana.

    Reply us back with more information. We will be happy to assist.

    Thank you.
