How can I link my Microsoft account to Curseforge app?

Hi Ismael Gamer,

I haven't received the message from you yet. 

Please let me know if these steps I provided could help.

If there is anything more that I can do for you or if anything is unclear, please do not hesitate to let me know.

Sincerely,

Dear Ismael Gamer,

Thank you for reaching out to the Microsoft Q&A Forum.

There is no setting inside the CurseForge app itself to link your Microsoft account permanently. Instead, CurseForge works by opening a separate instance of the official Minecraft Launcher, and you must log in to your Microsoft account inside that specific launcher window.

You could try the following steps:

1. Open the CurseForge App.
2. Go to the Minecraft tab and hover over the modpack you want to play.
3. Click the orange Play button.
   • Note: This will not start the game immediately. It launches a special version of the Minecraft Launcher.
4. When the Minecraft Launcher opens, you will see a login prompt.
5. Select Microsoft Login (do not select Mojang Login, as those are discontinued).
6. Enter your Microsoft email and password.
7. Once logged in, the green button in the Launcher will say Play. Click it to start your modded game.

CurseForge creates isolated profiles for each modpack to keep them safe from breaking each other. Because these profiles are separate from your main Minecraft installation, the Launcher sometimes treats them as a new computer and asks you to verify your credentials again.
