    Can't change Microsoft accounts on Nintendo switch.

    Hi Georges,

    thank you for your answer. I disagree. The problem is with a Microsoft account within minecraft. The issue is definitely with Microsoft.

    In Minecraft on switch there is a button to logout from Minecraft. When you login again, the authentication of the first Microsoft account which was logged into is prompted. There is no possibility to change the Microsoft account.

    There is an additional button "Delete Microsoft account login data". If this is pressed you are asked, if you are sure. If you press yes, nothing happens. Nothing has changed with login either.

    Can you help us, please?

    Issue is, I connected the Switch Minecraft version with my adult Microsoft account. Now my son is old enough and I want, that he logs into the switch with his own account. But I cannot change the Microsoft login account of switch minecraft. :-(

    Best

    I need help. I'm trying to connect to my switch with my Microsoft account but when ever I finish filling it out it takes me to an Xbox screen, asking me to sign in. I don't have Xbox. I have ps4

    Hello,

    Thank you for posting in Microsoft Community.

    We understand that you're having trouble connecting your Microsoft account to your Nintendo Switch. It sounds like you may have accidentally clicked on the Xbox sign-in page instead of the Nintendo Switch sign-in page.



    To connect your Microsoft account to your Nintendo Switch, please follow these steps:



    1. On your Nintendo Switch, go to System Settings > Users > Add User.

    2. Create a new user account and select "Sign in using a Microsoft account."

    3. Follow the prompts to sign in to your Microsoft account and link it to your Nintendo Switch.



    If you continue to have trouble, please let me know and I'll do my best to assist you further.

    Sincerely,



    Microsoft Community Moderator

    How do I unlink a random Nintendo Switch from my Microsoft account

    Recently my account was compromised and connected to a random nintendo switch. Now I have no clue as to how to unlink the nintendo switch from my account as the only forums I've seen about this situation if you have access to the nintendo switch. I dont have access to the switch so how do I unlink the account from my Microsoft one?
    The problem with unlinking this is gonna be the fact that its your Microsoft account is linked to the switch account and not the other way around.

    The linking process starts on Nintendo's end. Therefore unlinking it would also have to be done from Nintendo's end.
