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.
