    How to update email address

    Hello, first it's a pleasure to be able to help you today.

    My name is welcome to the community.

    Hello Christopher, you can add an "Alias" to your Microsoft account and log in to the console with the new Alias, but I do not advise you to delete the previous alias, because for all purposes the email that is registered with Epic games would be your previous one.

    Add or remove an email alias in Outlook.com

    Help change Microsoft account email without making a new account

    Is there any way to simply update the email address associated with my profile? The email address is no longer active. Or do I have to create an entirely new microsoft account to update it? Both the above links are instructions how to change the account
    to a new account. I just wish to update my email address therefore updating my log in.

    Updating email address

    I'm just going to clarify on Vibroplex's obscure message. If you lose access to all proofs on the account then yes, you do have to wait for the 30 day cool down period. This is another security measure intended to protect your account. However, if you have
    access to one proof on the account, you can confirm the proofs you are attempting to add with the one proof you have access to. If you confirm these proofs, they are added instantly with no delay.

    So yea. If you lost access to the proofs on the account, bummer man, and I feel your pain. Hope you get this resolved.

    Updating email address

    when you update an email address it doesnt mean that you log in with that email, it just mean that any further communication between xbox and you will be done through the updated address. Alot of people think that means they sign in with the new address
    thats not the case, you cannot change your login email address, you can change password but not loginto xboxlive email. basically use old address and anything important will come to new address,

    I guess you lost the other proofs and you're referring to the 30 day speed bump on making changes without the other proofs. That was imposed by Microsoft Accounts Security; you can let them know what you think at
