Clipchamp We couldn’t sign you in, Please try again

If you encounter the ‘We couldn’t sign you in’ error message in Microsoft Clipchamp, follow the solutions below.

Check the Internet connection
Clear the Microsoft Store cache
Clear the browser cache
Repair or reset the Clipchamp app
Disable VPN/ Proxy temporarily

Let’s get started with the troubleshooting guide.

1] Check the Internet connection

Before diving into a complicated troubleshooting solution, we will first rule out the network problems mentioned in the error message. To do so, open a web browser and see if it’s loading. If it doesn’t, the problem rests with the internet access. Unplug the router and modem for a few seconds, and plug them back in. Next, ensure the WiFi connection you are using is stable and try signing in again. If the issue persists, see the next solution, as the Internet is not the cause.

2] Clear the Microsoft Store cache

Microsoft Store’s cache is temporary data that, over time, can become corrupted and interfere with the app’s ability to handle login credentials properly. This hindrance then causes launch issues.

To resolve this, we will clear the Microsoft Store’s cache to provide a fresh start. For that, click Win + R to open the Run dialogue box, type wsreset.exe to clear the cache, and hit Enter. Do not close the blank blue command prompt window; wait for the process to complete, and disappear automatically. After the process is completed, restart the device and open Clipchamp. Go to the next solution if you are still unable to sign in.

3] Clear the browser cache

Users accessing ClipChamp via a web browser may be unable to sign in due to outdated or corrupted website data. They are notorious for creating conflict with Microsoft’s authentication processes. In this solution, we will clear the website cache to force the browser to download fresh, clean files from the servers.

Clean your browser’s cache in Chrome and Edge.

Reopen it, navigate to the ClipChamp website, and try signing in. Proceed to the next situation if the status remains unchanged.

4] Repair or reset the Clipchmp app

If the above steps didn’t resolve the issue, repairing or resetting the Clipchamp app can resolve corrupted local files and settings. This process re-installs the core components without affecting the data.

Click Win + I to open Settings, go to Apps, and then click on the Installed apps tab.
In the search bar, type Clipcamp, and click on the three dots next to it.
Click on the Advanced option and then scroll down to find the Repair button. Click on it and wait for the process to complete.
If the error persists after repairing, return to the menu, and this time, click on the Reset button and follow all the prompts.

Relaunch the app, and verify the condition. If the ‘We couldn’t sign you in’ error appears, see the next solution.

5] Disable VPN/ Proxy temporarily

VPN and Proxy Services can be among the reasons users are facing the issue. They can interfere with the connection to the Microsoft authentication server.

If you’re using a third-party VPN app, open it and disconnect or turn it off. Alternatively, uninstall it temporarily if it’s deeply integrated.

If you’re using Windows’ built-in VPN, press Win + I to open Settings. Go to Network & Internet > VPN. If any VPN connections are listed, click them and choose Disconnect or Remove.

Additionally, you need to disable Proxy settings as well. For that, press Win + I to open Settings. Navigate to Network & Internet > Proxy. Check for the following settings.
