    My XBox won't let me add an account


    My XBox one won't let me add an account. I reset it with saving my apps and games and by factory resetting and it still won't let me add an account. It is just a blank screen that is there for a little bit, and then goes back to add account screen. I have tried this numerous times. I can't play any of my games. What can I do to fix this?

    :)

    My xbox won't let me add accounts

    Hi and thanks for reaching Microsoft Xbox gamer's community. My name is Josef.
    I'm an Independent Advisor and a Microsoft Xbox user like you.

    Hope you're doing great today despite this KAIVINUEZA

    May I know if you already tried power cycling your console? Or using a different wifi network?

    1. Turn off your console by pressing the Xbox button on the front of the console for about 10 seconds, until it shuts down completely.
    2. Unplug the console's power cable from the console and from the power outlet. Wait 5 minutes.
    Important: Be sure to wait at least 5 minutes. This step resets the power supply.
    3. Plug the console power cable back in.
    4. Press the Xbox button on your console to turn it on.

    After that, try to remove and re-add your profile on the console.

    In case you need it, here's how to remove and re-add:

    Also disconnect your router from power for about 3 minutes. Then connect it again an when everything is working, try again

    If yes, what else did you tried? In that way I can advise you different things or how to proceed

    My XBox won't let me add an account

    Hello, how are you? My name is Mateus. I'm an Independent Advisor and I'll be glad to help you today.

    First, welcome to the Xbox community, and we're sorry you're having this issue. Since you've already tried resetting the console to factory defaults keeping your games and applications, I suggest you try the same procedure again, but this time choose to delete everything, as it may be a more serious problem that would necessitate this.

    - But before doing the above procedure, please try the alternatives below.

    Solution 1:

    Step 1. Press and hold the Xbox button on the console for at least 10 seconds to open the Power center.

    Step 2. Then unplug the power supply from your console and wait for 3 minutes.

    Step 3. Plug the power supply back into the Xbox console.

    Step 4. Press the Xbox button on the console to turn it on again.

    Solution 2:

    Press the Xbox button.

    Open Settings.

    Go to Network and select Network settings.

    Select Advanced settings.

    Select Alternate MAC Address.

    Select Clear.

    Select Restart.

    Solution 3:

    Try performing an offline update on your console by following the instructions in the article below.

    * Thank you in advance for contacting, I hope this can help you.

    Xbox won't let me add account

    Hi, I hope you're doing great out there. I am an Independent advisor and I am here to help you with your concern.

    If this is happening with multiple devices this may mean that it's an issue with your network connection. Have you tried using a different network connection such as a mobile hotspot? If not yes, please try it out.

    Won't let me re-add my account.

    Hi Toaster,

    Thank you for posting on the Xbox forums.

    There is a current service alert on https://beta.support.xbox.com/xbox-live-status affecting core services like signing in or adding accounts. I would suggest logging
    into the webpage that I linked and sign up to receive a notification when the issue is resolved and you can sign in again.

    We appreciate the patience while the engineers work on a solution!
