Minecraft Username Issues

Hello Samuel M! I'm Kris and I'd be happy to help you with your question.

Sounds like you need to chat to Minecraft Support to go back to your old name https://help.minecraft.net/hc/requests/new

Hello Matt Shel,

Thank you for your contribution to the Microsoft community. Just a reminder, here on community we are not able to double check accounts and devices to check for the possible issue. What we can do here is provide/guide customers with possible troubleshooting steps for the issue.

I'm sorry to hear that you lost your inventory in Minecraft due to an automatic username switch. Upon checking, once a username is changed, the inventory associated with the old username is not recoverable. It's important to note that Minecraft usernames are managed by Mojang, the developer of Minecraft, and not Microsoft.

I recommend reaching out to Mojang support for further assistance. They may be able to provide additional information or offer a solution since they have access to Minecraft's internal system and double check everything regarding your issue. You can contact Mojang support through their website or by submitting a support ticket.

When I logged into windows 10 using my Microsoft account it instantly used my Xbox username. It there any way I can make my Minecraft account different than my Xbox username? This would be extremely helpful, especially because my Minecraft username
is 13 letters, and Xbox usernames can only be 12 letters!

Hi there,

I found this article, I hope this helps:

Minecraft Usernames

This article covers Minecraft usernames for Minecraft: Java Edition on PC/Mac. Minecraft on other platforms do not require usernames, but if you play on Minecraft Realms on these platforms you will use your Xbox gamer tag. The console editions of Minecraft
use Xbox gamer tag or Sony PSN ID.



Where can I find my username?

If you have a Mojang account, your username can be found and changed on your Mojang account page.

Can I change my username?

Users who have a Mojang account (the default account type for all accounts registered after November 2012) can change their username for free at account.mojang.com/me by clicking the
(Change) link next to your profile name.

If you sign in with your username, as older accounts do, you'll first need to migrate to a Mojang account before you can change your username.

Hi Faraj! My name is Darhyl and I’d be more than happy to help you with your query.

I'm sorry you are experiencing this with your Minecraft username.

Unfortunately, it is not possible to bypass the 30-day timeframe. You can wait after 30 days to change your Minecraft username.

However, you can still try to contact Mojang Support since this is an unauthorized change from your Minecraft account:

I would also suggest you secure your account further to prevent this from happening again by changing your account password on:

Thank you for your kindness and understanding! Please feel free to let me know if you need anything else.

Best Regards,
