    Thank you for getting back to me to this is actually a Personal Computer of mine not a work one 

  • hi FluffyMan​  This error 0x8007052e is a login/authentication error  it basically means Windows can't verify your credentials when trying to sign in through Edge.

    Here are the most common fixes to try:

    1.Check your Windows account password

    If your Windows password recently changed, Edge may still be using the old one. Go to Settings → Accounts and make sure everything is up to date.

    2.Clear Edge credentials

    Open Edge → Settings → Passwords

    Remove any saved Microsoft account logins and try signing in fresh

    3.Clear Edge cache and cookies

    Press Ctrl + Shift + Delete in Edge

    Clear cookies, cached data, and signed-in data, then restart Edge

    4.Check Windows Credential Manager

    Search "Credential Manager" in the Start menu

    Go to Windows Credentials

    Remove any old Microsoft or Edge entries, then try logging in again

    5.Try signing out of Edge completely

    Edge Settings → your profile picture → Sign out

    Restart Edge and sign back in

    If none of these work, it may be a deeper Windows domain/network policy issue  worth checking with your IT team if this is a work PC.
