Can my kid (10 yo) use my games and saves in her profile

Florent Caffarel · Dec 5, 2022

Hi

If I follow this page: https://support.xbox.com/en-US/help/family-online-safety/child-accounts/add-family-member-on-xbox-one#:~:text=to%20your%20account.-,Press%20the%20Xbox%20button%20%EE%8F%A3%20again%20to%20open%20the%20guide,prompted%2C%20select%20Add%20to%20family.

And if I do this (I already created a MS account for her with her gmail email)

Press the Xbox button  on your controller to open the guide.

Select Profile & system, and then sign in to your account.

Press the Xbox button  again to open the guide, and then select Profile & system > Settings > Account > Family settings > Manage family members > Add to family.

Select the profile for the person whom you want to add, and then press the A button  on your controller.

Will she be able to use the games she already played on my account (before I realized I could create her own) and pickup where she eft off (for ex, Forza Horizon, Ori, etc...).

Also, will I be prompted to sign-in as the buyer of the game ?

Thanks !

:)

Thanks

I indeed found the info about the home box, it took me a while before a surrendered and googled to find out where it was

Sad for the saves, especially the Forza one.

If you set the console as your Home, she can access the games, but her progress will be tied to your account and she would have to start over. https://support.xbox.com/en-US/help/hardware-network/console/my-home-xbox

My wife and I have 2 separate accounts and 2 separate save game data. My wife had a female of course on her account. Now we load her profile up and it has my game save on her profile. We restarted the system. Logged out both account. Logged into her account
and my save data is on her account.

How is this possible? We had two defiantly different profiles.

Okay, but can I play games on my console while my daughter plays game files saved under my profile on her console?

Hey between me being brain dead, trusting Gamestop, and my wife's help; I lost all my data. Was able to redownload the stuff from the marketplace but save games are gone. The good thing is wife lost her profile too. Was not able to recover it since we could
not remember her game tag. So her gamescore is now 10.
