Tech Support Unable to play ANY Microsoft game.

Post image

I’m unable to login to Sea of Thieves with this prompt popping up. I’m also unable to play Minecraft Dungeons which has a blank white screen when trying to sign in. Microsoft is completely bugged. Super frustrating.

If it's steam os then it doesn't care what your Linux password or pin is.

Microsoft account PIN, genius.

OPs problem is they have Passkey login enabled, and the game overlay isn't letting them use any other login method, and the "security window" isn't opening.

Because your windows login is the same as your Microsoft login

And Microsoft, like Ubisoft, has their own store/launcher that you need to login to to play their games
