    Inability to sign in to an account after a soft reset


    I have recently done a soft reset on my console. It was back up and running me through the normal setup options on the console. I was then prompted to either add and account or sign into an account. After trying each option a couple times, each trial ended up with a black screen with a loading symbol. A couple minutes go by and the black screen and loading symbol go away with no errors or messages and I end up on the home page. Any suggestions?

    :)

    Your account is already associated with this Xbox, even if there is no account

    Hello MiniCooper,

    We understand that you're experiencing an issue concerning an inability to sign into your Microsoft account.

    If the problem persists, try doing a soft factory reset of the console,
    reset and keep games and apps to help reset the operating system. Please note before doing this troubleshooting step, make sure to know your email and passwords for your Xbox profiles.

    Try this out first and let us know the results.

    Soft resets

    Hi Sam, I hope you're doing great out there despite the issue that you're experiencing. I am an Independent advisor and I am here to help you in regards to your concern.

    Not at all, Sam. Your saved games and progress are automatically saved to your cloud storage as long as you're connected to Xbox Live or Xbox Network.

    So make sure that you're not playing your games offline in order for your progress not to be removed.

    Soft resets

    That is the exact problem I am having, I am connected to the internet but my Xbox doesn’t register that I am, forcing me to use offline. So it is forcing me to soft reset in order to fix everything, but I am afraid that my progress would be deleted from my single player games.

    Soft resets

    Please perform an extended powercycle first and reset your network hardware by following the steps below:

    1. Unplug the power cable from the back of the router, modem, or gateway for 5 minutes. If you have a router and a modem, unplug the power cable from both devices.

    2. Press and hold the Xbox button on your console for 10 seconds or until it turns off then wait for 2 minutes before turning it on again.

    3. After 5 minutes, plug the modem or gateway in first, and wait for all the lights to return to their normal state.

    4. If you are using a router, plug in the router and wait for all the lights to return to their normal state.
