Method 3: Power Cycling the console

If the method above didn’t allow you to circumvent the 0x87e107d1 error code, some kind of firmware or software issue is likely causing the problem. In situations like this one, the most effective fix is to perform a power-cycling on your console – This procedure will clear any temporary data and clear the power capacitors, which will end up resolving the vast majority of firmware and software issues that will spawn this error code.

Several affected users have confirmed that this issue was effective in allowing them to circumvent the error and play their favorite games once again.

Here’s a quick guide on performing a power cycle on your Xbox console:

1. Ensure that your console is fully turned on, then press and hold on the Xbox button (on the front of your console). Keep that button pressed for 10 seconds, or until you see the front light flashing intermittently. When you finally see this behavior, release the power button.

   

2. After the shut down is completed successfully, wait a full minute before turning the console back on. To ensure that the power-cycling procedure is successful, you can also physically disconnect the power cable for the power source to ensure that the process is complete.
3. Once you’re ready to turn your console back on, press the console-based power button once again, but don’t keep it pressed like before. Only press it one normally, then be on a lookout for the initial animation logo – If you see it, take it as a confirmation that the power-cycling procedure was successful.

   

4. After your console is fully booted, try to complete the sign-up process once again and see if you’re still encountering the 0x87e107d1 error code.

If you’ve performed the instructions above and you’re still encountering the same error message, move down to the next method below.

Method 4: Performing a Soft Reset

If the power-cycling procedure didn’t work in your case, chances are you’re dealing with some type of firmware glitch or corruption that doesn’t originate from the temporary files. In situations like this one, one viable fix that will not produce any data loss is to perform a soft reset.

Several affected users have reported that they managed to circumvent the 0x87e107d1 entirely after they performed a soft reset which ended up replacing any corrupted data that might be causing the problem. Keep in mind that this reset will only apply to OS files – this means that every installed application, game or media will remain intact.

Here’s a quick guide on performing a soft reset on your Xbox One console:

1. With your console fully turned on, press the Xbox button (on your controller) once to open up the guide menu. Once you’re inside the guide menu, navigate to System > Settings > System > Console Info.
2. After you manage to get inside the Console Info menu, access the Reset console button.

   

3. Once you’re inside the Reset console menu, choose the Reset and keep my games & apps option.

   

4. After you start the process, wait patiently until the operation is finished. Once it is, your console will restart automatically.
