How to Fix Clipchamp Sign-In Loop Error in Windows 11

If Clipchamp keeps sending you back to the sign-in screen on Windows 11, you’re dealing with what’s commonly called a sign-in loop. You log in with your Microsoft account, the page refreshes, and then you’re asked to sign in again—over and over. This usually happens due to corrupted app data, account sync issues, browser integration problems, or broken Microsoft authentication tokens.

The good news is that this issue is almost always software-related and can be fixed without reinstalling Windows or losing your projects.

Fix Clipchamp Sign-In Loop Error in Windows 11

The fixes below focus on resetting Clipchamp’s authentication state and ensuring your Microsoft account is syncing correctly. We recommend following them in order and testing Clipchamp after each fix, as the issue is often resolved early.

1. Restart Clipchamp and Your PC

Sometimes the sign-in loop is caused by a stuck background session or cached authentication state. A full restart clears temporary glitches.

1. Close Clipchamp completely.
2. Make sure it’s not running in the background using Task Manager.
3. Restart your Windows 11 PC.
4. Open Clipchamp again and try signing in.

This simple step often resolves one-time sign-in failures.

2. Make Sure You’re Signed In to Windows with a Microsoft Account

Clipchamp relies on your Windows account for authentication. If Windows is using a local account, sign-in loops are more likely.

1. Open Settings.
2. Go to Accounts > Your info.
3. Confirm you’re signed in with a Microsoft account, not a local account.
4. If you’re using a local account, switch to a Microsoft account.
5. Restart your PC and try signing in to Clipchamp again.

Using the same Microsoft account across Windows and Clipchamp is critical.

3. Sign Out and Back Into Your Microsoft Account

A corrupted Microsoft account session can cause Clipchamp to fail authentication repeatedly.

1. Open Settings > Accounts.
2. Click Email & accounts.
3. Under accounts used by apps, remove your Microsoft account.
4. Restart your PC.
5. Add the Microsoft account back and sign in again.
6. Launch Clipchamp and retry sign-in.

This refreshes authentication tokens used by Clipchamp.

4. Reset the Clipchamp App

Corrupted app data is one of the most common causes of the sign-in loop.

1. Open Settings > Apps > Installed apps.
2. Locate Clipchamp in the list.
3. Click the three-dot menu and select Advanced options.
4. Click Repair first.
5. If the issue persists, click Reset.
6. Restart your PC and open Clipchamp again.

Resetting the app does not delete cloud-saved projects.

5. Clear Microsoft Authentication Cache

Broken Microsoft sign-in cache can trap Clipchamp in a login loop.

1. Press Windows + R, type wsreset.exe, and press Enter.
2. Wait for the Microsoft Store to reset and reopen.
3. Close the Store once it opens.
4. Restart your PC.
5. Open Clipchamp and sign in again.

This resets Microsoft app authentication services used by Clipchamp.

6. Disable VPN, Proxy, or Ad-Blocking Software

Network filtering tools can block authentication redirects required for Clipchamp login.

1. Turn off any VPN or proxy service.
2. Temporarily disable ad blockers or privacy tools.
3. Restart Clipchamp.
4. Attempt to sign in again.

If this fixes the issue, whitelist Clipchamp and Microsoft services in your security tools.

7. Update Clipchamp and Windows 11

Outdated versions of Clipchamp or Windows can contain known sign-in bugs.

1. Open the Microsoft Store and update Clipchamp.
2. Go to Settings > Windows Update.
3. Install all available updates.
4. Restart your PC after updating.

Updates from Microsoft often include fixes for account and authentication issues.

8. Reinstall Clipchamp (Last Resort)

If nothing else works, a clean reinstall usually resolves persistent sign-in loops.

1. Open Settings > Apps > Installed apps.
2. Uninstall Clipchamp.
3. Restart your PC.
4. Reinstall Clipchamp from the Microsoft Store.
5. Open the app and sign in again.

This clears all local configuration issues.

Wrapping Up

A Clipchamp sign-in loop on Windows 11 is almost always caused by corrupted authentication data, account sync problems, or blocked sign-in requests—not an issue with your Microsoft account itself. Resetting the app, refreshing your Microsoft account session, and disabling VPNs usually fix the problem quickly.

Once Clipchamp signs in successfully, the loop rarely returns—unless account data becomes corrupted again. With the steps above, you should be back to editing without interruption.
