Microsoft doesn’t recognise the email address associated with my account, but it sends any...

When you change the email associated with your Microsoft account, it will not delete the original email or any of its other corresponding data. Changing the email simply means that the email address linked to your Microsoft account will be updated to the new one you provide. The original email account will remain independent and unaffected by this change. It will no longer be associated with your Xbox account, but it will still exist as a separate email account with its own data and functionality. It is a pleasure for me to help, I hope this helps.

The only way for the email to be completely no longer associated with OPs account would be to delete it as an alias however keep in mind per https://support.xbox.com/en-US/help...nt/change-email-sign-in-for-microsoft-account

Warning When removing an email alias that’s connected to a Microsoft domain (such as @Outlook.com, @Live.com, or @Hotmail.com), that email is completely deleted from our systems and can’t be used to send or receive emails. It won’t be available for use again as an alias on another account. Microsoft doesn’t recycle email addresses, so it can’t be reclaimed at a future time.

Hi Sam,

Thanks for posting on the forums today. We understand you're trying to change the email address associated to your Microsoft account. I suggest for you to click on this article

Note If you choose to remove an alias that uses a Microsoft domain such as @hotmail.com, @outlook.com, or @live.com, that alias will be completely deleted and will not be available to sign in to any Microsoft services. Do not
remove this email address if you still want to use it to send and receive email messages.

Give it a shot let us know how it goes.

I have the email address associated with the account and I have access to the recovery email address

I have reset the password but then when I try and log on it says the account doesn’t exist.
