I can sign into my Microsoft store account but cannot sign into the Xbox app..it brings up my user name, I click that and get a Let's go box which I also click but nothing, my profile does not appear in top left corner just asking me to sign in again...as I mentioned, another perpetual loop. Exactly the same issue as you described, no way to get it work.

I'm on PC / Store version... Maybe this is not relevant, but "press any key" really means "click the mouse anywhere on the screen". Pressing keys is has never been recognized at that screen since day 1 of MSFS release. 5800X3D, RTX4070, 600 Watt, one or two 1440p 32" screens, 64 GB RAM, 4 TB PCle 3 NVMe, Warthog throttle, VKB NXT EVO stick, Honeycomb Alpha yoke, CH quad, 3 Logitech panels, 2 StreamDecks, Desktop Aviator Trim Panel.

Pressing keys is has never been recognized at that screen since day 1 of MSFS release. yes, that's nonsens either press any key or click a mouse to somewhere, the result is the same XBox dialog and the subsequently ongoing loop. But since day1 or better before day 1 of MSFS the problem was more the fatal decision to hardlink PC and XBox versions together in one build, in my opinon the same wrong decision comparable with the FSX one core strategie - useless for XBox and restrictive for PC.

March 18, 20242 yr Tried everything, any possible solution and still nothing is solved. Xbox app needs ti be signed in and unfortunately simulator not able to start. Press any button to start. Let’s go screen continues to show.

Hundreds of restarts, prodding and poking (amazing where desperation takes you) the penny dropped. Services in Task Manager! A few more uninstalling XBox app setting the services to automatic and tada!! I don't know why I made such a fuss. 🙄 This may help others. https://answers.microsoft.com/en-us/xbox/forum/all/i-get-0x80040904-when-trying-to-launch-xbox-app-on/c9adce00-21ae-43d1-8d43-072a04995036 This is what you're looking for.

March 18, 20242 yr I went to bed last night feeling confident that my MSFS woes were over. I even made that smug post above. Settled down to do some livery painting, fired up MSFS and BOOM! Press any button to start loop is back! I swear I heard it laugh. The World is divided into two groups. Those who say "Give me a link" and those that provide the link. WWG1WGA

March 18, 20242 yr I'll be jiggered! Gave up in disgust, went for a walk (well, hobble really. Suffering a bout of gout at the moment. That's all I need) came back, switched PC on and wouldn't you know. MSFS started up! No, I don't know what I did, nor do I care any more. I CAN take it! The World is divided into two groups.
