Can’t link my XBOX live / Microsoft account to my Steam account to get the Age Insider Symbol.
"Couldn’t link accounts:
Error code: C25T05R01X-01 52656C6102B1"
Same error here. Tried signing out/in again and still same error.

Same problem here:
“Das Konto, mit dem Sie sich anmelden möchten, ist nicht für diese Umgebung vorgesehen. Ihre Anwendung ist möglicherweise nicht ordnungsgemäß konfiguriert.”
"The account you want to log in with is not intended for this environment. Your application may not be configured properly.”
Whatever that means… i’d like to get the insider symbols.

Thanks, but you mean every single one of us is meant to contact support? You will get flooded by tickets as this appears to be a bigger issue. Reddit and the Steam Forum are full of it.
I would be happy if you could forward this as i cant find any way on the linked site to contact support on the AOE4 support page…
just look at this thread. its already pinned and nobody reported it worked for them

I received a reply from support. It was pretty useless. It essentially just said follow the FAQ for errors in linking accounts.

Hello there,
If you are unable to connect to Xbox Live, your antivirus or firewall may be preventing you from accessing the online service.
Disable your antivirus and firewall.
Try disabling your antivirus program and firewall and re-launching the game. Make sure the program is not running in the background.
Some antivirus programs can also interfere with the installation of the game files. Try reinstalling the game before trying to play again.If you’re having problems signing in with your Xbox Live account:
If you are using high security settings, they can prevent you from connecting to the Xbox Live sign-in page. Try lowering your security settings, clearing your cache and cookies, and then launching the game to try again.
The module to sign in uses Internet Explorer to collect and transmit your information. If you’re not seeing the sign-in box, try clearing your cache and cookies before launching and signing in through the game.
If your time is not synced, you will not be able to login. You can ensure your computer’s clocked is synced by navigating to Start > Settings > Time & Language > Date & Time, where you can toggle the “Set time automatically setting to on.
You can find steps to do so in this article.
If you have multiple Microsoft or Xbox Live accounts, make sure you are logged into the Xbox Console companion, at account.xbox.com/, and even into your Windows machine with the account you intend to use.
Search for “Xbox Live Settings” to open the Xbox Networking settings. Click “Fix It” to run the automated tool.
You will need to be in a region supported by Xbox Live to successfully log in. You can find the full list of supported regions here: xbox.com/live/regions
If you continue to have trouble, give it a few hours and try again. Disruptions in the Xbox Live service can prevent you from accessing the online features. You can also reach out to the Xbox Live support team for additional assistance and troubleshooting steps!Thank you for contacting us.
Regards,
Age of Empires Support
