"This Arc account is already linked to a gamertag, please logout and use a different Arc account"

in Windows and General: PC, Network, and Other Technical Issues
So, after a long haitus, I recently saw STO on the Xbox One marketplace. I eagerly downloaded and installed an old favorite game. Once I ran the game I was prompted to link my Xbox gamertag to Arc(I'm assuming I will be able to load my old characters). After signing into Arc, I am sent to the main menu, where I only have the option to create new characters.

I tried exiting the program and re-opened the game, but again, it prompts me to link with an Arc account. Only now, every time I attempt to log into Arc I get the message "This Arc account is already linked to a gamertag, please logout and use a different Arc account". I am still using the same login for both Xbox and Arc.

It would really not be worth my time if I have to create all new characters. Any help would be appreciated, thanks.

    As of right now, account linking is a known issue. However, from what I have read around the forums, linking your account does not give you anything from the PC version. The Xbox version is to being more people into the game, and people who left the PC side. It is not a place for us PC players to go to get a jump start start on new players.

    i have the same problem, "This Arc account is already linked to a Gamertag"
    I played Neverwinter on the Xbox One and now if I try to link in STO it gives me the above error.
    Would be nice for a fix.

    thanks

    same , i despise the devs for not including crossplay (would like to work on my fleet assignments without installing on my PC ( i noticed with PC version with every new area it downloads more and more data on my HDD) finding 5 people to be in a party with and that are not in a guild and same instance is a freaking pain just to start a guild/fleet same can be said for neverwinter, heck all of Cryptics games have stupid demands for starting a guild (how about paying a flat out fee and start one?.....Noooo we have to make it difficult for the player :( , with that said this is just icing on the cake for me sadly !!!!
