    Cannot add new account


    I am trying to add a new profile to my Xbox one and it will let me put in the email which it says is fine, the name and password for the account which it says is fine, and an alternate email which works too but then a captcha screen appears and I've put
    in the correct answer more than 10 times now and when I enter it in it doesn't say it's wrong it just goes to the loading screen and then back to the home screen like it just canceled everything instead of going to the next step. Has done this over 10 times
    and doing a hard reset changes nothing. This is the first time I've ever had to use the captcha for creating an Xbox live profile and I've made a bunch on my Xbox for family and friends. How do I fix this?

    :)

    BANNED XBOX ONE CONSOLES

    As stated in your other threads, you cannot add a new account to a banned console since it cannot connect to Live. If you already had an account on the console, you would have to continue to use that.

    Follow this path and select reset keeping games and app.

    In 5 to 10 minutes you will finish reconfiguring your console

    Hello keatonlormand,

    I'm sorry to hear that you're having these issues. If you are still experiencing these issues after taking those steps without any success, you may want to try to do a soft factory reset. This tends to fix these sort of situations.

    Xbox Factory Reset

    You will have one option to hard factory reset which will erase your games or a soft reset that will keep your games. If you are not wanting to reinstall any games, please be sure to follow the second option on step 4.
