I just got minecraft for windows 10 yesterday, and i try to log in to collect the items in my starter pack. Every time i click to log in though, there's an error message that pops up saying "Failed to login. We tried to sign you into your microsoft account, but something went wrong." and there's a "close" button at the bottom. I just want a way to sign in so that i can get my stuff. Also, would i be able to sign in with an account that didn't buy the game? Or is it mine now and i can sign in with whatever account? Thank you for your help :))

The best option is to install the xbox game companion app from the Microsoft store: https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/p/xbox-console-companion/9wzdncrfjbd8?activetab=pivot:overviewtab
Also install the xbox games app: https://www.xbox.com/en-US/apps/xbox-app-for-windows-10
This will give you visibility into any account problems, and are necessary for playing Minecraft Windows 10 Edition.
I have the answer guys! If youve tried all these tips snd none work (likely) then do this! (Actually do this first).
go to search function on windows 10 and type “services”. You should see a long list. Scroll diwn to anything microsoft/xbox/minecraft related and click on it.
Youll see a drop box menu in each area that will have selections like “disabled”, “automatic”, and a few other options. Enable them by switching them all to automatic. (Dont forget the xbox ones).
that is it. Ive been searching for this answer a month and none of the geniuses could figure it out.
Enjoy!
ps, you might have to go back in and do it again one time. For some reason they want to default back to disabled
