I bought a new notebook which comes with pre-installed windows 10 version. Right on installation, when asked to enter my Microsoft account it didn't work. So I rather used a local account, as suggested by the application. But when I went to use the Windows, pretty much anything related to MS wasn't working. I tried sign-in OpenDrive, resulted in error. Windows Store isn't downloading anything. The downloads stuck at 0% without error messages. Skype app doesn't work at all, right when I hit enter after typed my password, it back automatically to the login screen. I guess no http request is done at all. My guess is there's something blocking the http requests from this services/apps, my I don't what or when look up for it. How do I fix this?

  • This sounds like an ISP related issue. Have you tried switching to a different DNS?

  • So what about a browser, can you surf the web? Can you login to Microsoft services?
