Windows 10: Windows Security Microsoft Account Login

I received a notification from Windows Security prompting me to sign in with my Microsoft account. I entered my credentials correctly, but I consistently encounter the following error messages:"Oops, something went wrong" with "Whatever happened. It was probably our fault. Please try again."I have attempted to sign in multiple times, but the issue persists with the same messages appearing each time.

MICROSOFT ACCOUNT LOGIN

Hi Arbaaz,



Thank you for contacting Microsoft Community.

In order to help you better, could you please confirm a couple of things:

• Are you able to login with Microsoft account in web?
• What happens exactly when you try to login using Microsoft account?

I suggest you to login to Microsoft account through online login.live.com, if you are able to login to Microsoft account on web then you can reset the password and then try to login and check if the issue persists.

Hope this information was helpful and do let us know if you need further assistance. We will be glad to assist.

Step 1: To convert to local account.

• Press Windows logo + I keys on the keyboard to open system
  Settings window.

  sign in with a local account instead option.
• Enter your Microsoft account password and click on Next.
• Type the Password, and Password Hint that you want set for the local account and click
  Next.
• Click on Sign out and Finish button.
• Login to check if the changes are effective.

Step 2: To switch to Microsoft account.

• On the newly converted Local user account, press
  Windows logo + I keys on the keyboard to open Settings window.

I am not sure if you want to switch to a local account instead of your Microsoft account, or if you want to keep your Microsoft account but login automatically instead of having to type the password.
