2] Verify your Account
This error message can appear if you haven’t switched from a local account to a Microsoft account or haven’t verified your Microsoft account. Here is how you can verify your Microsoft Account:
- Press the Windows key + I to open Settings.
- Navigate to Accounts and click on Account privacy.
- A prompt will open in your browser, asking you to send a code to your registered email. Click on Send code.
- Enter the code and click on Sign in.
- Once done, check if the error gets fixed.
3] Check Microsoft Servers and Account Status
Check the Microsoft Server status, as the servers may be under maintenance or facing downtime. You can also follow @MSFT365Status on Twitter to check if they’ve posted about ongoing maintenance. If many people have the same issue, the server may face downtime.
Now check your Microsoft Account and make sure it is still active. If not, renew your subscription and try again. You can check your account status by logging into the Microsoft Account page. If your account gets disabled somehow, you have 60 days from closure to gain access to your account again. After this period passes, your account and data will expire.
4] Manage Connected Accounts
If you are still unable to fix the issue, too many accounts may be connected to your device. Remove all unknown or unused accounts and check if the issue is fixed. Here’s how:
- Press the Windows key + I to open Settings.
- Navigate to Accounts > Email & accounts.
- Expand the Microsoft account you want to remove and click on Manage.
- The connected devices page will open in your browser. Click on Remove this device to sign out from the account.
5] Sign in using a Different Account
If none of these steps were able to help you, it’s possible the issue lies within your Microsoft Account. Try logging in with another account. However, you can also log in with a Local account and check if the issue gets fixed.
6] Reset Windows
If none of these methods were able to help, reset your Windows PC to factory settings. Sometimes the issue lies within core files that cannot be fixed manually.
Hope this helps.
