Some Windows PCs may show Microsoft or Office sign-in problems after installing Tobii Software together with the Windows update KB5060842.
🚨 What you might notice
- Repeated sign-in prompts or sign-in failures in Microsoft Office apps, including Outlook
- Microsoft Store apps that fail to open or update
- Windows features that rely on a Microsoft account not working as expected
- In some cases, parts of the Windows interface (such as the Start menu) not responding
Why this happens
Windows update KB5060842 introduces system changes that can conflict with the current Tobii Software installer under certain conditions.
What we are doing
We are working on an updated installer that prevents this issue in future installations.
🛠️ How to fix the issue
If the device is already affected, normal behavior can usually be restored by resetting the relevant system settings.
A PowerShell fix script is available for this purpose.
Run the fix script:
- Download the script HERE.
The file is usually saved to the Downloads folder. - Open the Start menu, search for PowerShell, and select Run as administrator.
-
Script execution may be restricted by system or IT policies.
If PowerShell blocks the script, to unblock the downloaded file, run:Unblock-File -Path "$env:USERPROFILE\Downloads\WinAppPermissionsRemediate.ps1"
If it is still blocked, temporarily allow script execution:
Set-ExecutionPolicy -Scope Process -ExecutionPolicy Bypass
- Run the script.
- Restart the computer.
Restarting is recommended to ensure all Windows components reload correctly.
