    I bought minecraft but when i sign in to my account, it says a completley different gamer tag


    So recentley, i tried logging in to my microsoft rewards account. Whenever i log into my account, just in general, it says i have to change my password. every single time. i tried clearing my browsing data and stuff but that didn't help. But that's not the point, on my PC when i open up the settings, there is a random emial there that i have never seen connected with my account. And if i try logging into minecraft with my info, it takes me to a completley different account, with random gamer tag.

    this is the gamer tag that xbox says i have, but i know for sure this not my gamer tag because it was something like goldsauceXXXX

    and no, i do not have multiple accounts with same emial. I dont know what to do because i bought minecraft and don't want to lose it becuase my account is possibley hacked. Just for some context, i recentley change my PC i.e i built a new one. If anybody can please help

    :)

    Minecraft bedrock. Wrong account!

    I ha e never been asked to log into minecraft as its on the ps4. The remote connect login page doesn't show any gamer tag. Only asks you for your Microsoft login details. Email and password. I've downloaded the xbox app and logged in with the same details
    to check and it's the correct account for when I had an xbox. But when using the same details on the remote connect for ps4 minecraft, it's logging me in with a completely different gamer tag and gamer tag picture.

    To add to the issue I've logged out of that account on minecraft on the ps4 and tried again using remote connect on the laptop (to see if there's some issue with logging on with my phone) and after entering my email address and password, the ps4 minecraft
    says that it will not log in with these details as I've already logged in with the gamer tag I don't recognise. It let's you sign out but it says I can only use that a account.

    Gamer tag to MS account

    I am not sure how it happened. I already had a Microsoft account. When I got my xbox I created an account and got a gamer tag while setting up my xbox. I signed up for xbox live from my xbox using my existing gamer tag and Microsoft account. I then went
    to xbox live and signed in using my Miicrosoft account, and for some reason when I did this a new gamer tag was created and associate to my Microsoft account. So, now when I log into xbox live I see one gamer tag. But on my xbox I have a different gamer
    tag.

    Anyone know how to get my old gamer tag onto my console after starting a new account?

    Thanks, I appreciate you getting back to me but that isn’t helping.

    Maybe I’m not explaining this right.

    I restarted my console this morning when I signed back in I didn’t read things correctly and used my email and password to sign in and then started with a new gamer tag with the same email as my old gamer tag.

    Now when I sign in it’s my new gamer tag that pops up. I tried deleting the new tag off my console and resigning in but again the new gamer tag pops up.

    There is no option to look for tags associated with the same email???

    All my purchased games and game pass is associated with my old gamer tag. How do I get my old gamer tag back with this email and onto my console???
    You had to have used a different email for the new account. Its simply not possible to have two accounts under the same exact email.

    If you tried it would say the account already exists

    I signed up using a different gamer tag, if that helps any- i signed up under "Panglossia" then changed my gamer tag.
