Change the microsoft account that is connected with xbox

Hi, my name is Annanda, thank you for your question and for reaching out.

Yes, you can change the email on your account! You can do this by following these steps:

" Sign in to your account by using your existing alias and password.

https://account.microsoft.com/?refd=support.xbox.com">https://account.microsoft.com/?refd=support.xbox.com

Go to Your info at the top of the page.

Select Manage how you sign in to Microsoft.

You might be asked to verify your account before any changes can be made. Follow the instructions that are provided to select your alias:

Select Add email. You can create either a new Outlook.com email address or add an address that you already have. Then, select Add alias. After you’re returned to the previous screen, select Verify, and then follow the instructions that are provided.

Or, select Add phone number. Enter the phone number that you want to use, and then select Next. When you add a new phone number, we'll send a text message to that number to verify it. Enter the code in the text message, and then select Next.

Note: Email addresses and phone numbers that are already set up as an alias on another account can’t be used. "

Now, to remove the alias ( email or phone number ) that is already on the account, follow these steps:

" Warning: 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.

Sign in to your account by using your existing alias and password.

https://account.microsoft.com/?refd=support.xbox.com

Go to Your info at the top of the page.

Select Manage how you sign in to Microsoft.

Select the alias that you want to remove.

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.

You’ll use this new primary alias to send and receive emails, access your Microsoft account information, and appear on devices.

To remove the email address or phone number that you no longer want, select the option Remove that’s next to it, and then follow the instructions that are provided. "

You can change any email on any xbox/microsoft account, but only one GamerTag can be connected to each Microsoft account.

There's a link telling you how to change your information.

so i have to make a new Microsoft account and connect it with my nonlive account to change my nonlive account to live, then i go into Account on the xbox and change it to associate with my xbox live account

To remove that gamertag that is connected to your 'main' email (Microsoft Account), just change the connected gamertag connected to a new Microsoft account.

-

So first free up your 'correct' email address by moving the connected gamertag to a new Microsoft Account

and after that you should be able to change the 'email' (Microsoft Account) for your main gamertag to your 'correct' email address (Microsoft Account)

Hi there,

as far as I know you are only able to change the associated Microsoft Account connected to an Xbox Live account via the xbox 360 console.

Currently there aren't any other ways to change the associated Microsoft Account (email address) sorry
