    Need help removing address from account


    I have an address on my account that i need to take off but it says its being used for my developer account, but I can't find where to edit such account I'm guessing it means my insider account for Xbox as i became one for that but that's it. Where do i get it changed or removed? Because a resent purchase used it as my address, good thing it was a digital one, but I don't want these causing issues for future physical purchases or any other mail.

    :)

    Xbox alias tranfer from one msn account to a different msn account family member?

    Hello Alex_weerer,

    Thank you for posting on the Xbox forums. We understand that you are interested in learning how to transfer the primary email address from one Microsoft account to another. The email address used to log in to your account is known as the primary alias.
    We have a support article that explains more about
    how to change the primary alias of a Microsoft account
    . Keep in mind that if the email address is a Microsoft domain like @hotmail.com, @live.com or @msn.com, the email address cannot be recovered once it is removed from an account. The article we provided
    explains more about this.

    You will need to remove the email address from one account and add it to the other. However, an account must have a primary alias before an email address can be removed from it. This means you need to first add any email address you want to the account,
    set it as the new primary alias, remove the old primary alias and add it to the other account. We hope this information helps
    Alex_weerer!

    Linking my old xbox account to my new email??

    You will need to change the email address on the old account to your new email address and to do that you will have to remove it from the new account.

    Delete a gamertag associated with an email address

    You can only remove accounts from the family, if you are wanting to change the gamer tag associated with an email address you will need to get another email address to associate it with.

    There is no way to swap to email around as these are bound to the account (depending if they are outlook emails).

    If you are wanting to remove a gamertag from an account you would need to pay for it to be changed.

    Account Alias Question

    Hello wolfeboy1,

    Thanks for posting on the Xbox forums. We understand that you are interested in learning more about keeping an alias after removing it as the primary alias, and you would like to make your Gmail account the primary alias. The email address will remain
    on the account as a secondary alias after you remove it from the primary alias slot. Once you

    change the primary alias
    on the Gmail account, you will still see your old email address on the list. If the old email address is a Microsoft email address like @outlook or @live and it's removed, the email address will be deleted permanently and cannot
    be reclaimed after it is removed. You can assign a third-party email address to another Microsoft account.

    In order for you to use your Gmail account as the primary alias of another Microsoft account, you need to remove it from the account when it is a secondary alias. This means removing it as the primary alias from the Microsoft account that has it. The
    article we provided explains more about completing the process, and what's involved with it. We hope this information helps wolfeboy1!

    Sostituire email al Xbox -[Translation - Replace email to Xbox]

    Hello!

    Thank you for posting on the Xbox forums. There is a way to change the primary email address of a Microsoft account. It is called

    changing the primary alias
    . If you are interested in switching email addresses between two accounts, you must first remove the primary alias from one account and add it to the other account. However, there are certain email addresses that are not able to
    be recovered once they have been removed from a Microsoft account. These type of email addresses are from other Microsoft domains (like @hotmail.com, @live.com, or @msn.com), cannot be added again as an alias to any Microsoft account once they're removed.
    If you remove an email address from @outlook.com, it can be re-created as a new account or alias after 30 days. We hope this helps!
