The solution is simple but Microsoft will not tell you this. One group of people is saying you can get rid of the sign-in prompt just by pressing the X button, and the other group saying the sign-in prompt won't go away.īoth are true, because Windows 10 behaves in two different ways depending on -Ī - If you have never used any Microsoft account on this device, you can close the sign-in prompt without any problem.ī - If you have ever used any Microsoft account on this device (or used it to switch out from Windows 'S' Mode), Windows will keep asking you to sign-in, even for installing free apps. I know why different people are reporting two different behaviors here. The user is now using the old Snipping Tool program as a workaround, but I can't imagine this won't come up in the future with this or another program.

I wondered if it was a user rights issue, so I logged into the computer myself, however Snip and Sketch seems to be a per-user application and it does not give me the option to reinstall it or install it for all users.ĭoes anyone know a workaround for this? I searched Google for an offline Snip and Sketch installer to no avail.

While logged in as the user, the Microsoft Store program is insisting that I sign into a Microsoft account to install Snip and Sketch, and it will not accept our onsite AD accounts as valid. When I link the user's onsite AD account in the Microsoft Store using the sign in button at the top right, it still demands a Microsoft account when trying to install the program.Ģ. However, I am running into the following roadblocks:ġ. Snip and Sketch was removed from a user's computer accidentally and I am attempting to reinstall it. Hello all, and thank you in advance for your help.
