How can I switch my Xbox profile to my main email, which has an account that I want...

Hello,

I have a main email address that I used to set up an xbox live account for my nephew YEARS ago. I also have my xbox live account that I use, which I set up almost 2 decades ago, so its a different email. I want to switch my old xbox live account to my current address, so that when I sign into xbox on my PC, my other microsoft applications dont auto sign in to the wrong email address. I cant find a live person to speak to, HEELPP PLZZZZ!!!

Are both email addresses Microsoft email addresses?

If so, then what you are trying to do unfortunately isnt possible since Microsoft email IS the Microsoft account which is in turn the Xbox account.

They are all intrinsically linked when you talk about one or the other you are essentially talking about the same thing across the board.

Yes they are. So basically, if I am signed into everything on my preferred email address, I need to sign out and sign back in every single time I try to use my xbox applications/ sites on my pc?

I've got the exact same issue.

Problem is that my main account uses an old email adress (hotmail) which isn't in use anymore. As my main email adress is used by a Windows 10 generated Xbox account my question is wether it's possible to delete this account, so my main Xbox account can
use my main email adress.

Is this a possibility and if yes, how do I fix it?

Kind regards,

Max

You don't need to delete the account. Simply log in to
https://account.microsoft.com and change the email to the one you want to use. You'll want to make sure you do this with the main email you want to use first. This will free up that email for you then you can use that email for your main account. The
change will take place immediately for you.

It didnt work.I have to sign into the account associated with the profile to switch the association, which is the problem im having.It made me this account, even though the same email is on my main account.

Ah yes, I did fail to mention what I wanted to do. Thanks for pointing that out.

If you want to switch your xbox live account to your new Microsoft Account, you will first need to remove that new auto generated xbox live account. This can only be done on the console, and only when a profile has been on a console 30 days without being
downloaded inbetween. See this link for the how to:

I want to use my current XBL account with my new @live email account. My current email account connected to my GT is a non Microsoft email. The generated GT has not been on my console. I will check that link. Thanks.
