Problems with Windows 10 Sync with Microsoft account? Here's a simple thing you can do to fix Sync isn't available for your bank account in Windows 10.

To sync settings between all of your systems, Windows first syncs all of them with your Microsoft account. When you log into another system with similar Microsoft account all your settings is going to be automatically synced and configured. This can be a very helpful feature if you have multiple systems. For example, I have both a desktop and laptop and all sorts of settings are in constant sync and that i do not have to configure mundane settings like wallpapers.

However, under certain circumstances, the Windows Sync might be locked out on your system. When that happens, Windows 10 shows "Sync isn't available for your account. Contact your system administrator to solve this" error message right in the sync settings page within the PC Settings app.

Although the error message is cryptic and never that helpful, it is quite easy to fix the problem. So, without further ado, allow me to show the steps you need to follow to repair sync is not available error in Windows 10.

Important: Before following the below steps, make sure that your Microsoft account is active and verified. In case your Microsoft account isn't verified, you can't make use of the Windows 10 Sync functionality. You are able to verify your account out of this page.

To fix the sync unavailable problem, we have to create a single registry edit. So, before editing, I suggest you backup registry just to be on the safe side.

1. First, open the start menu, search for "Registry Editor" and click on the result. Once you click, the Windows Registry Editor will open.

2. After opening the Registry Editor, copy page the below path in the address bar and press Enter. This course of action will give you to the target registry folder in which the value we need to edit exists.

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Policies\System

3. Around the right panel, find out if you have a value name "NoConnectedUser". Whether it exists, then continue in the 5th step. If there is no such value, right-click around the right-panel and choose the "New → Dword Value" option.

4. Name the newly created empty value as "NoConnectedUser" and press Enter.

5. Now, double-click around the "NoConnectedUser" value. Select the "Hexadecimal" radio option, type "0" within the Value Data field and click on the "Ok" button in order to save changes.

6. Finally, close the Registry Editor and reboot Windows.
