One of my best memories on Xbox was back in 2005 teaching my 7yr old son to play Fable. We had such a blast and we both remember those days vividly so it was memorable for both of us.

Hi, and thanks for reaching out. My name is Miguel O., Sorry to hear you're experiencing this issue!

To recover a username/address please do the following instructions (in case you can do one of the multiple solutions, try the next one please):

A. Lookup your username if you have security info set up on your account

If you previously set up security info on your Microsoft account, you can use this option to retrieve your username.

1. Look up your username using your security contact phone number or email address.

2. Request a security code to be sent to the phone number or email you used.

3. Enter the code and select Next.

4. When you see the account you're looking for, select Sign in.

B. Check products or services where you used your Microsoft account

Try searching other Microsoft products or services that you know are associated with the username.

1. Have you ever set up an alternate email address for the account you want to sign in, such as @outlook.com, @gmail.com, or @live.com? If so, try that.

2. Windows 10

From a Windows 10 device where you’re already signed in, select Start > Settings > Accounts . Under Email & app accounts, you'll see the usernames associated with your device.

Also see Change or reset your Windows password.

3. Xbox

Xbox gamertag: Because gamers are identified by their gamertag within Xbox, it’s not uncommon to forget that you created an email address when you signed up for Xbox. For details of where to look on your console, see the Find your Microsoft email address walkthrough.

4. Office apps

Microsoft 365 or Office 2016 or newer: Open an Office app, like Word or Excel. Select File > Account. Under Product Information, you'll see Belongs to with the associated username.

5. Email accounts

Check your email accounts to see if you have any mails or receipts from Microsoft for purchases such as digital games, movie rentals or subscriptions.

The thing is though I can’t see the email when it says that it’s saying it’s protected so I can’t see it I can see like the first two letters of it and that’s
