Hey Aimless Sky,

Thank you for reaching out. We understand you have been experiencing some trouble logging back into Minecraft on your Nintendo Switch. If you haven't already done so, go ahead and try uninstalling and reinstalling Minecraft on your switch. One the game is
ready, launch it and sign in using your Microsoft Account. Be prepared to re-link up your account through the aka.ms/remoteconnect site via the unique code provided. Feel free to follow

this link if you encounter any sort of problem. We will eagerly await your response!

The error message I keep getting is on the website aka.ma/remoteconnect. I can log in on my account on the xbox app and mcpe. When ever i try the website this pops up. I went on nintendos website and was told its on microsofts behalf.

Hello AimlessSky,

Are you able to sign into the Microsoft account on our website? If so, this would then concern the game not properly recognizing your account on your Nintendo Switch.

Also, if you are able to sign into the account on our website without any errors appearing, the next best course of action may involve getting in contact with
Nintendo Support for further support with troubleshooting on your Switch.

Try this for us and let us know the results.

Best wishes!

Hello Sky,

Thanks for coming to the forums with your issue with signing in. You can use the

Minecraft FAQ for switch. First power off the switch completely, leave off for 30 seconds then turn back on.

Now that I have a Microsoft account, how do I sign in on my Switch?

On the Minecraft game home screen, click Sign in with a Microsoft account.
This will bring up a screen providing you with a unique 8-digit code and instructing you to go to
http://aka.ms/remoteconnect.
Complete your sign-in by following the instructions on this site to enter the 8-digit code

Try this and let us know.

Thanks,

Brad
