Deleting my Xbox Live Account but keeping my Microsoft account

miriKa · Oct 29, 2014

Hello,

I have a problem...

I want to delete my Xbox Live Account because I gave my Xbox 360 to someone else. I forgot to do this before and now I don't have access to the console anymore.

However, I want to keep my Microsoft email account.

Is there a way to do this?

I am thankful for every answer...

:)

How to delete photos and videos from my game or from KinectShare.com

You can easily delete photos and videos from my game or from KinectShare.com. Very few games save your images or videos. If you don’t upload the unsaved images or videos immediately, they will be lost. On the other hand, to delete the saved images and videos, you need to check the game’s manual and menus for steps that you can use to delete them.

The uploaded photos and videos of KinectShare.com are automatically removed after 14 days. You’re also allowed to delete photos or videos from the site at any time. To delete the photos or videos, you must sign in with the Microsoft account that is associated to your Xbox LIVE account.

There is no way to completely delete an account from the servers. However, if you go here you can remove your account from all consoles -

actually there is a way, but it requires Access to a 360 and a 2nd Microsoft account without gamertag

following like this

- sign in your current gamertag on xbox 360

- navigate to Settings->account->account security->change gamertag

you can then enter your 2nd Microsoft account there, this way you can Keep your email account and delete your 2nd account

SraDuvidas,

How's it going? We don't have xbox live accounts, but you can buy xbox live to put on your Microsoft account. If your trying to delete your whole Microsoft account, here is a link that can help you

Close Microsoft account. Keep in mind this will delete all your games and everything you own.

Translation: I mistakenly created an Xbox Live with microsoft account I'm using now. I would like to delete this account xbox live to use my microsoft account on another xbox live account.

you could always delete a windows live id

you cannot delete an xbox account

the only thing you can do is make it more difficult to recover your account by not keeping your info upto date

if i change my email i update my windows live id or the very least update my xbox account to the new windows live id before i close the other account

people also keep their xbox accounts seperate from their emails for security
