:white_check_mark: ISSUE DESCRIPTION

  1. Description of the issue:
    After clicking Connect to Xbox Network I login with my Microsoft account. Shortly after authenticating on the app I am dumped back to the Connect to Xbox Network and no matter how many times I login I am asked to connect and login again and again.

Checked event log, no exceptions, no information on what has happened and why it failed to connect. I was on the Tech Alpha and I didn’t experience any issues with this account (my email on this forum).

Also there is no mouse cursor and a spinner on the Connect to Xbox Network screen so I sat there for an hour assuming it was doing something. Utterly embarassing level of testing.

I have fixed this by changing my Time & Language settings to Set the time automatically ON

I figured this out because Azure was also not letting me login (although other MFA services worked fine) and this was a recommended step to solve the issue.

For whatever buggy reason when Xbox store/Microsoft password box came up my cursor was not appearing. Then it wouldn’t type. I used the passcode pin of my PC. Then hey presto I was in. Very buggy but I’m in and done 2hrs.

Side note!
One flight was buggy as had to re-start. Apart from that I’m up and running. It’s definitely more immersive. Fly a small plane from a small airfield surrounded by trees. You’ll know what I mean.

To the connection page, the mouse will not work. Therefore, I could not click “correct to Xbox network “ button, which caused an infinitive loop.

I had the same issue. The problem was in Time & Language settings and then in Date, time & regional formatting. There I changed the regional format from English(US) to English (Europe) and it worked!
