Can't log out of microsoft account on minecraft

Hello, My name is Jesse. I'm an Independent Advisor and a member of the Microsoft community and I'd love to assist you today.

Save your worlds and then do a reinstall of the game. You should then be able to get to the login screen.

Hi Lucas,

So the email that used to be used to log into minecraft has a microsoft account. When I log in to the microsoft account specifically, I'm not sure if the account has been migrated. Like I said, I can't figure out how to log into an account to download minecraft.

Honestly, maybe the account was migrated but to a stolen microsoft account? If that was the case, how would I get my game back?

Ok, so as it turns out, Minecraft for Windows was bought on a different Microsoft account but everything on Minecraft is linked to the account that can't buy it. Is there a way to link the purchases between the two? Because when opening it with the launcher it will not allow access because I have a different account logged in on the Microsoft store.

Hi, and thanks for reaching out. My name is Miguel O., Sorry to hear you're experiencing this issue!

To change the Microsoft account affiliated with your Minecraft account, you can follow these steps:

1. Open the Minecraft game on your device and log in with your current Microsoft account.

2. Click on the "Play" button to start the game.

3. Once the game has loaded, click on the "Options" button in the main menu.

4. In the options menu, click on the "Profile" button.

5. Click on the "Log Out" button to log out of your current Microsoft account.

6. Once you have logged out, click on the "Log In" button to log in with a different Microsoft account.

7. Enter the login credentials for the new Microsoft account and click on the "Log In" button to link it to your Minecraft account.

Keep in mind that changing the Microsoft account linked to your Minecraft account will also change the account linked to your Xbox Live achievements and friends list.
