  1. Windows 11 File Explorer not signing in at all/correctly


    I need to access work files, but File Explorer is not allowing me to sign in to any account, let alone the correct account. It says "Please Sign In", when I click on it, it is defaulting to an account Acct. A I do not use and is not the primary account for the PC, so I select "Sign in with another account" and choose the correct account Acct. B, at which point it loads for a moment and then kicks me back to the login screen, still defaulting to the incorrect account Acct. A.I wanted to upload some Snipping Tool images of the screen during each step, but, now a separate issue, it is givin

    Pressing “Windows+Pause Break” (it’s up there next to scroll lock) opens the “System” Window.

    Windows 10: In the new version of Windows, Explorer has a section called Quick Access. This includes your frequent folders and recent files. Explorer defaults to opening this page when you open a new window. If you’d rather open the usual This PC, with links to your drives and library folders, follow these steps:

    • Open a new Explorer window.
    • Click View in the ribbon.
    • Click Options.
    • Under General, next to “Open File Explorer to:” choose “This PC.”
    • Click OK

  3. why won't explorer 11 let me sign into ebay?

    Hi,

    I appreciate if you could answer to a few questions to narrow down to the issue.

    • What exactly happens when you try to sign in?
    • Is the issue specific to a particular website?
    • Did you try the same from a different browser?
    • Did you install any third party security application?
    As an initial troubleshooting step, I suggest you to clear the browsing history cookies and caches and check if the devices are reflecting under the account.

    View and delete your browsing history in Internet Explorer - Microsoft Support

    If the issue still persists, Please get back to us with the required information. We will be happy to help.

    Thank you.
