    Can’t change primary Alias

    Hi there!

    May I know what exactly is your email domain? Does it come from an organization or from your work?

    transferring Microsoft account info

    You're welcome, also, before making any changes make sure to check the information on the link.

    Important notes are the following:

    " When removing an email alias that’s connected to a Microsoft domain (such as @Outlook.com, @Live.com, or @Hotmail.com), that email is completely deleted from our systems and can’t be used to send or receive emails. It won’t be available for use again as an alias on another account. Microsoft doesn’t recycle email addresses, so it can’t be reclaimed at a future time."

    "If it’s a primary alias, select a new primary before you remove the old one. To do so, select one of the other aliases that are on the account, and then select Make primary."

    Moving Xbox live profile to a different Microsoft account

    I tried this exact method, however when attempting to change the primary alias, no matter how many times I click "make primary" it would not change the primary alias. It is now saying I've changed my primary alias too many times this week even though it
    hasn't changed once.

    Change primary alias

    Hi there ASwiftDevil,

    Thanks for reaching out here in Xbox Forums. I understand there is an issue with changing the primary alias to an existing Microsoft Account. When changing a primary aliases on an account, you may not use any Microsoft Domains such as: xboxlivefamily.com,
    Hotmail.com, live.com, outlook.com, and msn.com.

    For more detailed information about how to add an alias, including why and how to set your primary alias, see the
    Manage aliases on your
    Microsoft account
    article.

    Hope this helps.
