cant switch to microsoft account from local account in windows 8.1 laptop

I first had the Microsoft account linked but for some reason I had to switch to local account in laptop.

when I tried to connect it again, from pc setting->account->your account-> connect Microsoft account ....I could successfully fill the password, give the ms id and password, the code from authenticator, and when I finally click on "switch"option...I get error: Sorry,we can't connect to Microsoft services right now. if the problem persists check for "network problem"on the start screen.... I have tried every possible solution I got on internet search...but I couldn't switch to ms account..... please help...im really tired of this now....

Hi,

I just make an supplement. Is this problem occurs in Domain environment? If not, it would be better to create a new Microsoft Account for test if it could be work.

Other users in this forum have encounter similar problem but until now, still no effective method to find the reason of this problem and resolve it.
