Fix problems signing in to the Xbox app

If you’re having trouble signing in to the Xbox app, here are a few things you can try.
Make sure that you’ve connected to the Internet.
Go to Xbox.com and sign in there to make sure that the Xbox service is up and running and you don’t have any issues with your account.


On your PC, go to Start > Settings > Time & language. Under Date and time, make sure that the Set time automatically setting is turned on.
If none of the other options work, go to Start > Settings > Accounts and find the Microsoft account you used to sign in to the Xbox app, and select Remove. Then go back to the Xbox app and sign in with the Microsoft account you just removed.

  1. I have had all sorts of problems signing on to my Microsoft account. I have tried my password without success, when I requested codes to reset my password I found that the code that I was given would not work. Three times I have been given codes and three times they have not worked The fixes suggested require me to access my email account which means leaving the screen and accessing webmail. When I try to return to the previous screen I cannot. What can I do??

    1. I have the same problem, I am un able to sign in Zbox or use my Microsoft account.

    2. and also me when I wan t to log in it just not working they give me the code and it did not work.Ihope to fix the problem.

    3. For me it says I don’t have a connection to xbox live even though my internet is fine and I can sign in on xbox.com. I tried with all of my accounts and Xbox Live is still down, and for some stupid reason you can’t run the app at all without xbox live.

      1. I have done the same things you have and the problem still remains. Please, tell me when you find a way to solve it. Many thanks.

    4. I´ve found a solution, is XBOX authentication service the one that can´t reach your current login at XBOX App, download the Xbox Identity Provider, install it, restart your PC and try to login in. After launching Forza or any Xbox Windows 10 Game, am Auth box will appear and you can login and associate your Xbox Account. So you can plan the game! 😀

      All my best!!

      1. I have the same problem as everyone else, except that I did not try to reset my password because I knew that was not the problem.
        Your link raised my hopes, so I tried your link, but at first it seemed useless to me, because the page it took me to told me it (Xbox Identity Provider) is already installed, and no option to download appeared.
        After I started to write this reply, I re-checked the page which I left open on a separate tab, and I find that the option to download has now appeared. Clicking it opens the previous version of the page in a new window. At first my heart sank again, but then I notice that the new window is an Xbox window, not in my browser (firefox).

  7. I have been blocked by hotmail or microsoft they keep sending me 4 didgit codes it asks for 7 numbers i need my emails had to open new g mail dont have old contacts

  8. I am unable to sign in to the Xbox app. My clock is set to pick up time automatically.

    I cannot remove my microsoft account, because there is no Remove button within accounts.

    1. You can remove your Xbox live account and re-activate it (which I am presuming what it is asking to be done). However, it didn’t work for me either.
      I am finding on most Windows 10 updates the MS Solitaire collection access is denied with the usual array of error messages. And then miraculously, it is all resolved, eventually.

  9. playing video games on xbox is also a waste of time,micro soft does not care about windows 10, we are all being used by micro soft for a better running systems check all your up dates its alot. some day windows 11 will be free and over and over we go…. suckers!

  10. Same……………………………
    Cannot sign in. Need five digit code, doesn’t recognize me, already have an account, need examples of email that I do not have….talk to friends and family? For real? etc, etc.

  11. if my business can be as bad as Microsoft has become I’ll be rich and all I have to do is read these reply and do nothing about them, just keep passing the buck. really help us we have better things to do the singing in over and over but never getting anywhere. You made your money so now it’s our problem. so that how to become rich. thanks 4 the 411 LOUANNE.

  12. MS –

    I believe these people have been abused enough. I, myself had never had many problems with Windows, ever since Win 95.

    But now it seems like the new technology has finally crept up with you’all. Time to dedicate your resources to one or the other – Win 10 or XBox. Make a choice, seems like this is something we have to do that every time we sign in to our MS accounts!

    Fix it please. We want to game and send our emails.

    1. My thoughts are that occasionally, the MS Window 10 updates are done by the proverbial ‘night cleaner’. Because, occasionally, the updates fail to include Xbox Live connection gaming platform.
      The problem is usually resolved, but if you are like me that plays the monthly challenges, then it becomes a scramble to complete it all within a few days.

  13. I have the same problem with trying to login to Xbox Live from Solitaire. The windows support suggested fixes do not work. Don’t bother with them The windows aka.ms site also has issues. The Microsoft CEO needs to get his act together when it come to Windows 10. He and the team he has selected to manage windows are killing the golden goose in my opinion.

  14. Yep, Windows 7 was just fine for me, but Microsoft decided to go ahead on their own & install 10 even though I had declined all requests. At first was able to play Solitaire for quite a while, then all of a sudden in the middle of the game it boots me off of the game site altogether. I tried creating an account thinking that would make a difference. Ran through all the hoops & had the same problems all you others had with not recognizing the password, etc. I’m just disgusted!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  15. Same here, I thought it was my laptop at first but no its Windows. Not been able to sign into the Microstoft store or the Xbox app for a while now and its getting very frustrating. This problem needs to be sorted once and for all but they are useless.

    1. Kind’a like a Scam…. why should we pay for something we have already paid for… This ain’t Microsoft folks.

  16. u updated my laptop n turned off my Bluetooth please turn this back on as I need it thank u Deborah normandin 401-475-6676

  20. I tired to log in with my username/password, but an error message pops up. it has never done that before and I’m trying to fix the problem.

  21. I cant log onto my Sudoku game. Says I am not logged on to xbox and check my internet connection. I’ve done all that and my other games come up.

  22. I intended to compose you a little bit of note so as to say thanks a lot yet again for your spectacular methods you have featured on this website. It is so tremendously generous of people like you giving without restraint exactly what a lot of folks might have offered for sale for an ebook to make some profit on their own, particularly seeing that you could possibly have done it if you considered necessary. Those guidelines in addition served like a easy way to comprehend the rest have the identical passion really like mine to find out more and more related to this condition. I’m certain there are thousands of more pleasant periods in the future for individuals who looked over your blog.
