Xbox signs me out after starting a game/app

I was experiencing Technical glitches and bugs on my windows 10 PC trying to sign into to xbox app for about 3 days, no usual fixes from the xbox microsoft forums helped me at all. Anytime i would try to click sign in on the xbox app or after opening a game it wouldn't do anything. Just bug out a little. I first opened services and made sure all the xbox related services were started. You can open your services by searching "services" in the Search Bar In the lower left hand corner of your taskbar. Scrall all the way down and then right click each xbox related service and then select start. After that i opened the microsoft store and downloaded another xbox related app. To be specific Xbox Accessories. After it finished installing it prompted me to sign into my microsoft or xbox live account. After signing in with microsoft from this App. It automatically fixed all the bugs, and actually signed me into the xbox app as well. Hope this helps.

Hi there, I'm basically having the same problem here. System freezes after usually even less than a minute after starting. However if I manage to sign out of my profile right after auto-login, everything works fine. Same if I start a game. Also no problem
using the dashboard while online as long as I'm not signed into my profile, I can browse around the online games store and everything. But soon after I sign into my profile, the dashboard freezes. Apps also work if I start them from the dashboard being signed-out
and then signing in after the app starts (tried it with the Youtube app, vids and everything working fine). I reckon this must have something to do with the latest update which download this morning, problems started after that. I'm signed up for the preview
program, might that be causing the problems? There doesn't seem to be a way to opt out right away and return to the last working system/dashboard version.

Any help is highly appreciated.

I had the same problem. It worked after I started MSFS with XBOX app and when I got the error switched back to XBOX app, logged out, not closed, and switched back to MSFS and tried again.

SOLVED - Great work around. Thanks for the help, this fixed my problem. For those still trying to understand once I received the error I tabbed over to the Xbox app, signed out, left it open and then went back to the open MSFS2020 and tried it again. It then
asked me to sign into Xbox App again and after that VOILA! it worked.

Hi Rostom,

thank you for your response!

I play on a PC and used the XBOX-App to play the game. Signing out in the app (as well as in the browser from xbox.com) and trying it again in the app after signing back in was to no avail.

Starting the game on a different browser on a different device showed the same result.

Is there anything else I could try?

Kind regards

That's perfect then. Please sign out both on Microsoft Store App as well as Xbox App and then sign back in. After that try re-launching the game.
