Changing Xbox account emails to existing account

Would you check this link Change the email address or phone number for your Microsoft account | Xbox Support for further assistance.

If you change gamertag then no they won't be deleted and will stay with your account.

For email, as long as you go through the process of first adding new email as an alias to your existing account and then making it primary, all should be good. You can change email using the steps mentioned here:

Do not create new account, rather change email of your existing account as per above link.

You can change the email linked to the account anytime. What are you trying to do overall exactly? Just use the existing email for a new Xbox account ?

It literally says “the Microsoft account you have entered does not exist” when I’ve had this account for 7 maybe 8 years? When I try to recover the account with my email it’s saying it literally doesn’t exist but the account still exists like I can add it on Xbox from a different account

Sounds like someone got access to your account and changed the email to your account.

> i changed the accounts email to, unfortunately and stupidly, to the email of an existing account

Well, you will need to contact XBL Support regarding the 'existing' account and explain the situation. See the steps below to bypass the hold queue.
