Fixing getting stuck on the "Press Enter to Play" screen

This guide is meant to fix the issue that occurs after loading the game, clicking Enter on the "Press Enter to Play" screen, but then getting stuck until you force close the game.

Steps to fix the issue

• In the Windows Search bar, enter "Credential Manager", and select Credential Manager to open it.
  
• Select Windows Credentials.
  
• Scroll down to the section labeled Generic Credentials.
  
• For every item that has "Xbl|2043073184" in the title:
  
  • Click on the item to expand it
    
  • Select Remove
    
  • Confirm you wish to delete that item
• Launch Halo Infinite and check to see if the sign-in process has started from the beginning.

Explanation

Basically what you're doing is deleting your computer's saved Xbox Live profile for Halo Infinite. For an unknown reason the connection gets corrupted. The next time you launch the game, reach this screen, and press Enter, the game will require you to sign into Xbox Live.

@reversetuls you should be able to sign out in the options and login to the correct account. Hope this helps.

Please let me know where I can locate the files on steam deck for this as I can't seem to find it. I do believe the files are not named the same for PC as it is for steam deck

The other numbers represent other games, deleting those entries shouldn't have an effect on Halo Infinite.
