Before trying the following methods, try sign-in in with the Microsoft account from the settings. If the issue persists, apply the following methods listed in this article.
1. Reinstall Microsoft Store
A migrated Windows 7 profile is a leading cause of this issue, which might not support the Microsoft store on Windows 10. Hence, the first method to fix this issue is reinstalling the Microsoft Store, which will resolve all your issues while signing in to the Microsoft account. Follow the steps to reinstall the Microsoft store on your Windows.
2. Create a new User account
You can also fix this issue by creating a new user account which will remove all the previous data of your Windows 7 profile causing this issue.

In case you have managed to transfer the data, such as configuration etc, through the third-party software, you might reencounter this issue. So it is recommended to create a new account as follows.
