Cannot link Microsoft account with Minecraft.

I have a PS5. I am trying to link to my Microsoft account.

When I try, it says it's already linked with an account. I have tried every email I can think of.

Minecraft help said to contact Microsoft, which, of course, has no direct way to contact help.

your Minecraft account is your Microsoft account

once linked, accounts cannot be unlinked

For your Minecraft game, if you already have migrated your Minecraft account to a Microsoft account, it cannot be undone anymore. It will be permanently linked to the Microsoft account you used on the migration process.

Hello, Mydth! My name is Mario and I welcome you to the Microsoft Xbox Community!

I can understand your concern and please don't worry I am here to help you.

Unfortunately once a Microsoft account is linked to a PlayStation account it cannot be unlinked afterwards. This is due to restrictions by PlayStation.

It is recommended to try to access that account which was linked and if you do not have access to it you can try to create a new profile and account to link this account you want.

The above link is an unofficial Microsoft site, the information appears to be accurate. I recommend caution for any ads that may appear.

Please keep in mind that this is a public forum. I am an Xbox gamer like you and I am happy to help you with my knowledge. Unfortunately, I am unable to access your internal account information.

Unfortunately, once you link a Microsoft account to a Minecraft account, I am afraid they cannot be unlinked!

You cannot see on the Microsoft website if you linked your PSN account to it or not.

Have you ever played Minecraft on your or a friend's Playstation?

Or maybe have a friend ever played Minecraft on your Playstation?

I ask because maybe your Microsoft account is not linked to any PSN account, but the PSN account on your PS5 is already linked to other Microsoft account - which makes it impossible for you to sign in and link your current Microsoft account to it.
