If you’re unable to login with Microsoft account, the problem can be your antivirus. Antivirus can interfere with your operating system and prevent you from logging into a Microsoft account.
To fix this issue, it’s advised to remove your antivirus and check if that solves the problem.
To be sure that your antivirus is completely removed, you might have to use a dedicated uninstaller. Almost all antivirus companies offer these tools for their products, so be sure to download one for your antivirus. Once you remove your antivirus, the issue should be resolved.
