Can I remove my account from a console that I no longer game share with.

My friend and I game shared and long story short he isn't a friend anymore. And I would like to remove my profile from his console if possible. Any idea how to do that? Or can I setup a password/code remotely?

Series x of that matters.

Another example of why people shouldn't game share. IMO. Why would people give their account info to their "so called" friends on the internet. I'll never understand it.

Hi, Aliens_didnt_do_it! thank you for reaching out.

Unfortunately, there is no way to remove your account from your friend's console remotely. In this case, I'd suggest changing your password and reviewing your account's security information to prevent unauthorized access to it.

- You can change your password at:

https://account.live.com/password/Change

- You can review your account's security & recovery information at:

Even though changing your password should be enough to prevent this person from accessing your account again, you could also set "Two-Step verification" for your account as an additional security measure. _______________________________________

I hope this helps!

Best regards.
