Can I change my xbox live email to another one without losing progress?

CoreySavell · Nov 5, 2023

So basically what I'm asking is, my current existing email that my gamer tag is linked to. Can I change that email without losing saved game progress? I assume I lose games that I purchased but I rather lose that than my years worth of progress.

Hi there CoreySavell, my name is Gerardo, and I'm an Xbox player, just like you. I'll be happy to assist you with any questions or concerns you may have.

Yes, you can change the email address associated with your Microsoft/Xbox account without losing your game progress or purchased games and items. Remember that even if you change the email, the account remains the same.

You can find instructions on how to change the email address on your Microsoft account through the following link:

I hope this helps and if you have further questions please let me know.

Kind regards,
Gerardo.

You can change the primary email address of your account without losing any of your xbox progress.

Hi RichardCorbin,

Unfortunately, you can transfer one Xbox Account to another Xbox account. The best thing for you do is to create a new email account for yourself and give his sole access to the account. Then he can change the email associate to the account but you will
have to create a new email account for yourself. Otherwise, if he creates a new email/ Xbox live account he will lose any games and game progression he has on your account.

Hi there!

Unfortunately, you cannot separate his Xbox account from your Microsoft account (hotmail address). Please note that Microsoft and Xbox account are just one single account. I am afraid it's gonna be tied forever in your Microsoft account and your son has to use the same credentials as yours.

Removing your hotmail address from that account means deleting it completely and it cannot be recreated. So if your hotmail address is very important to you, I don't recommend you removing it from your aliases. You may instead add a new alias or email address and let you son use it as his login credential but still he has to use the same password as yours.

Thank you!
