MSFS 2020 login password ISSUE

Hi All, I have recently installed first-time MSFS 2020. I used my MS account to log in as everyone does. The issue is, every time I start to play it asks me to log in and doesn't accept my password. It forces me to change my password. It does not retain the password. Now after 5 or 6 times it says that 'you have requested the verification code serval times in one day so wait until tomorrow' and is not going any further even after a whole day's wait. Does any one have this issue, is this a MSFS 2020 issue or a MS issue. i have tried to contact MS but no help.... :(

Hi, my name is Neil, and I'm a Windows 10 user like you.

Sorry you're having this issue with MSFS 2020.

Can I ask, do you have the Xbox App for Windows 10 on your computer? If not, open the Microsoft Store and first of all, make sure you are signed into your Microsoft Account in the Store.

Click the little profile icon in the top right of the Store Window and make sure you are signed into the same account you used to buy/play MSFS.

Now, search for Xbox in the Store.

Get the Xbox App and install it.

Open the Xbox App and sign in to your Microsoft Account.

Now try and play MSFS. If you get to the same stage, try pressing Alt + Enter keys together.

Let me know how you get on.

Kindest regards,

Neil
