This worked
In Microsoft Start, how can I be banned for violating guidelines if I've never commented?

I logged in for the first time ever to comment on an article in Microsoft Start. I got a message that I had violated community guidelines. If I've never once tried to comment on anything Microsoft, how can this be? There was no explanation of where this came from.

2022-02-21T04:55:02+00:00 This didn't work for me. It showed a "Continue" button and as soon as I click on it, it shows "This user has no name". Attempting another time leads to the same "The username violates our guidelines". It's surprising that such a greedy company with ridiculously expensive products only end up making broken garbage.
