    How do I open Microsoft Login windows in my browser?


    So, I sandbox pretty much everything on my system, including my browser. I am signed into an account that my dad owns in said browser, and he'd have to send me the confirmation code to sign in, but currently he can't. I'm trying to sign into the Minecraft account that's linked to this Microsoft account. So, since I'm already logged in on my browser, I assumed I could just open the Microsoft login popup window in my browser to sign in, since I'm already logged in on the browser. But I am yet to figure it out.

    If I were to open it in my browser, it would see that I'm already logged into the account, and I wouldn't have to go through the confirmation stuff. But since its opening the Microsoft login page in its own popup window from the Minecraft launcher, it isn't detecting that (and I guess it may be because of my sandboxing).

    Any ideas?

    Edit: I'm not sandboxing the Minecraft launcher, though. Only the browser.

    How do I open Microsoft Login windows in my browser?

    When I say "sandboxing," I mean that I am using Sandboxie, which isolates my browser or any app that I'm running from the rest of my system. It is running on my host system, but it's running in a container that can't reach other parts of my system or affect them unless if I explicitly allow it to.

    I am sandboxing my browser only, but I can use a non-sandboxed browser if needed.

    I am trying to see if I can get the popup Microsoft login page to open in my browser instead of in a popup window, or if I can get the URL of the page in the popup and just open it in my browser. I am trying to do this because I am signed into my Dad's Microsoft account on my browser, and I am trying to see if there's any way I can just open this auth page in my browser and just be able to click the account and instantly be signed in.

    I had a belief that it not being able to detect me being signed in on my browser may be due to my sandboxing which is why it was referenced to begin with. I want to open this popup window page in my browser instead of the popup so that I can sign into my dad's account because it's already signed into on my browser.

    To answer the rest of your questions, the white window with sign in options popped up after clicking Sign in with Microsoft in the launcher, so yes, it comes from the launcher.

    And also, I've made a video of my issue and what I'm talking about if I didn't make it clear in this post, where I go through where I am having my issue and what I'm talking about:

    Hello ImK0!

    Thanks for reaching out to our Microsoft Community Forum. Please accept our warmest regards and sincerest hope that all is well.

    We understand that you are having some issues logging in to two separate Microsoft accounts due to using "sandboxed" web browser. This situation is causing you some confusion with logging in to Minecraft.

    To be honest and frank with you, ImK0, I've re-read your description above several times, and I'm still confused if my phrasing above of your issue is correct or not.

    At any rate, if we go with our Windows Sandbox article with regards to your "sandboxed web" browser: "Windows Sandbox provides a lightweight desktop environment to safely run applications in isolation. Software installed inside the Windows Sandbox environment remains 'sandboxed' and runs separately from the host machine."

    based on the last sentence above, your "sandboxed" web browser basically counts as the browser of different computer and not of your actual. So, whether you log-in with your Microsoft account or your dad's own Microsoft account you will get prompts as if you're logging in to your account on a new computer.

    With that in mind, can you answer some of my questions below to provide more clarity for this issue of yours:

    1) In your photo above who's account are attempting to log in to in the Minecraft launcher? Yours or your dad?

    2) That white window with sign in options that's not triggered by the Minecraft launcher, correct?

    3) Can you provide us a video of the issue from start to finish? It would really help provide more context for this issue of yours.

    Feel free to reply to this thread if you need further clarification.

    Sincerely,

    Can't sign into *any* Xbox apps on mobile

    No luck, I removed security measures so it just asked for password and deleted the Xbox app. I reinstall, click "sign in" and it takes me to a login window to enter my email and password, it then pops up with another window saying "are you trying to sign in to Xbox App" with options "Cancel" or "Continue". Clicking continue another window says "This website wants to open an external app" with options "Stay in Microsoft Edge" or "Open external app". Clikcing to open external app takes me back to the sign-in screen...

    I even cleared the history in the Edge browser on my phone, so I needed to enter the login details again, rather than it just using my previously logged in account.

    Login issues with FlightSimulator.com Insider program

    I don't know if you have the same issue as me, but I was able to resolve it by opening a Private/Incognito browser window, going to the settings of the browser, and clearing all history and cookies in the privacy settings.

    Then I went to sign in on the flight simulator page, and the login worked.

    Kann mich in der neuen Xbox-App nicht anmelden [Translation - Can't sign in to the new Xbox app]

    Hallo!

    Eigene DNS Server habe ich nicht eingetragen. Adblocker benutze ich in meinem Browser, allerdings ist der in den Login Prozess ja eigentlich nicht involviert.

    Mit dem Microsoft Konto bin ich auch in Windows angemeldet.

    ----------

    [Mod Translation - Hello!

    I did not enter my own DNS servers. I use Adblocker in my browser, but the one is not actually involved in the login process.


    I'm also signed in to Windows with the Microsoft account. ]
