Weird issue, it should also work with your Google account. I am also using Chrome with my account without any issue with the forum. If not, maybe uninstall/reinstall Chrome ?
Thanks, already tried that.
Learned an interesting lesson:
Uninstalling Chrome on one device and selecting the option to “Also delete your browsing data” can sometimes trigger a sync reset that deletes your data from Google’s servers. When you then sign into Chrome on another computer, it pulls from the now-empty synced data.
That happened to me. I opened Chrome on another computer and all my data (bookmark, passwords, etc.) was re-synced to the now empty file on their server. Lost it all.
The perils of Cloud data saves.
Fortunately, I had backups of those HTML files.
I had this problem for a few days until yesterday, unable to connect to the forums on PC, tablet and phone. I tried all the recommended manipulations without result.
I finally contacted support who told me that it was a known issue.

A few hours later, an update of the Xbox application arrived, I did it and then everything worked again.
Do the Xbox app updates.
That’s good news. I’ll definitely do that.
