Hello all,

Just installed windows on my new PC, logged into my Microsoft account during setup, have done all the drivers etc

So then started to download steam,EA etc but I'm having a issue with the Xbox app, so I downloaded it, went to sign in and it's signed me into my account that I have used for windows, however I use a different account for my Xbox/gamepass.

I've tried to sign out, then sign in again but it keeps signing me into the wrong account without being able to change the email address etc.

Anyone had this before and know how to fix it?

Thank you
 
cut n pasted so not my suggestions

Are you trying to sign into the Xbox app in the app itself, from the Profile icon at top right? When signing in do you see the box to stay signed in?

If not you can try removing the password from the Windows Credential Manager which should prompt it to ask again to Stay Signed in:

If not try signing in with the Xbox Console Companion which often fixes sign in issues in Windows:

Al of the above fixes work the same in WIndows 11.
