Hi Deleted 

I tried it now, I logged in with this corrupt user profile in Windows,

- login needed longer, mabe 1 minute

- message "you will loose everything" still exist

- I opened Edge, profile was set to my windows mail address, I pressed synchronize, it synchrozed

- I started Microsoft Store in Taskbar - no reaction

- I started Microsoft Store through app list - no reaction

- OneDrive folder empty

 

I am happily using the new windows user profile I created

- everything works

- OneDrive works too

Does this mean that you did not repair your Microsoft account - or did you have to create a new one?

    Yes I did not repair, I created a new windows User...

     

    As the admin, I created a new windows user account, after logging into the new windows user account, Windows ask for the Microsoft Account mail address, I just give the old one so I have a fresh new access to my Microsoft Account data / profile.
