I had to reinstall Windows because the latest update caused constant BSOD (Blue Screen of Death) issues. After getting everything back up, I tried logging into the Xbox app, but it said there were too many requests. I thought it was no biggie and decided to wait. Now, when I attempt to log in, it just says 'oops, something went wrong.' I even switched my account to a local one to try and bypass the Xbox login, but I'm still getting that same error message when I try to access my Microsoft account settings. The only workaround I've found is creating a new user profile on my laptop, but all my settings are in my original account. Am I missing something?

You're not doing anything wrong; this seems to be a common issue with Microsoft account syncs after a major reinstall. I recommend checking your Settings > Accounts > Access work or school and disconnecting any organization accounts you might have linked. Then, clear your browser cache and reboot. Try signing in again through Settings > Accounts > Your info. If that doesn’t work, attempting to log in via the Microsoft Store might help get your account services back on track.
I tried both methods, but the Store keeps saying 'please try again later,' with an error code 0x8007000e. Any other ideas?
