    Can't sign in after Factory reset

    Hello there!

    Regarding your case, I recommend that you try the following steps provided below:

    The following troubleshooting step will help you clear out your MAC address:

    Settings > Network Settings > Advanced Settings > Alternate Mac Address > Clear it and the console should restart. It would definitely help if you could restart the internet router while the console is restarting.

    If the issue still persists after going through the troubleshooting steps mentioned, I invite you to perform a quick power cycle by turning off the console and then unplugging all the cables. After 10-15 seconds plug all your cables back in and then restart your console.

    In case the issue still persists, the next step would be to perform a reset on the console. To do so you will need to follow the steps below to perform a reset on the Xbox :

    Settings > System > Console Info > Reset This Xbox > Reset and Keep my Games and Apps.

    Note =>The "Reset and Keep my Games and Apps" option will not cause losing your games, but please be aware that you need to be completely aware of the email address as well as the password of your account before going for it because it will require you to sign in to the account.

    I wish you a lovely day, and I hope this helps you out! All the best!

You can do this by going to the Xbox website and clicking on "Sign in" at the top right corner. Then, click on "Forgot password?" and follow the prompts to reset your password.



    If resetting your password doesn't work, you may need to contact Xbox support for further assistance. They can help you troubleshoot the issue and get you back into your account. You can reach Xbox support by visiting their website and clicking on "Contact us" at the bottom of the page.
