xBox login error (0x409) 0x42B

Hello,

Today I purchased Forza Horizon 4 and tried to play it after long waiting for download.

When I launched it for the first time, I got a message "Sign In Needed" and I found out I need to login to play it.

This is first time to purchase a game from MS Store other than console or steam, I found out I need to login xbox app on my PC.

Now the problem is.. whenever I try to open / login xbox app, I always get error message;

We can't sign you in right now. Try again later.

(0x409) 0x42B

I followed all the instructions that I found from google search; reinstalled xbox app, checked "Service" and "System configuration", log in with local ID, to remove MS ID from email and app account.

I want to know what 0x42B error means (I know 0x409 is login error) and how to solve it. Any help is highly appreciated.

I just want to play FH4!!

Hello,I cant login in xbox windows 10 app. I get Error 0x409 0x80131509 when i am trying login.

 

Hi! While I don't know about this particular issue, you should make sure there are no Windows 10 updates ready to be installed since this can cause problems too.

 

There is no pending updates but still getting same error..

 

Hey Stream thanks for keeping in touch!

We are sorry this issue keeps coming up but we've found a
video that has a possible workaround to the problem at hand, Check this out and let us know how It goes!

 

Thank you for the video.

As you can see the attached screen capture, I've already followed the instructions from the video but still no luck.

I have 2 other systems Win 10 but I dont have problem to login with them.

Only this one. Not sure if OS is the problem as the system with issue is running on Win 10 pro while others Win 10 home.

 

Hello PowerStream,

We understand that you are experiencing a log-in error through the Xbox app and have a suggestion as this is only occurring on this particular Windows 10
PC.

Attempt the following:

Here are steps below on how to uninstall and reinstall Xbox app:



1. Click Start, and then type Windows PowerShell on the search box.



2. Right-click, and then select Run as administrator.



3. Type the following command to uninstall Xbox app: Get-AppxPackage
*xboxapp*| Remove-AppxPackage



4. Hit Enter.



Launch Windows Store and download Xbox App.

Try this for us and let us know if this works.

Best wishes!

 

Unfortunately still not successful even after removing / installing xbox app.

 

Hello power,

Have you tried to reinstall Windows OS completely to see if this helps. Understand its a lot to ask, but sometimes like on an Xbox console reinstalling the OS helps.

Thanks,

Brad

 

Just to leave an update. I think this could be a possible solution for same error code; 0x409 0x42b

Last night I just tried to launch xbox app and it worked fine all of sudden.

What I did was;

There were about 6 PCs tied to my Microsoft account and I removed 3 of them which I don't use any more. After removing them, I was able to log in xbox app and to play FH4.

Probably this error occurs when there are too many devices registered under same account.

I appreciate all for the advices.

 

Hi Power,

Thanks for posting the update and what was able to work for you. That will help us (me) in future to help others as this issue had me stumped You have a great holiday and happy gaming. I will lock this thread as it has been resolved.

Thanks,

Brad
