Ex Wife is selling kids Xbox One....how do I delete my account from the console without having ...

Richie is right - unfortunately you have to be physically at the console to delete it, but if you change your password, the console will be unable to log in without entering the new password. Also, if you have a console of your own, once you change your
password, make it your home Xbox, so people won't have access to your content. You should be covered, no problem!

Pretty sure if you change your password it will ask for it next time you sign on but unsure. You may want to call/chat with Xbox Support.

Set console 1 as HOME console.....anyone can play on this console (wife and Kids) without you being signed in (gold Account)

Console 2... If you are signed in (Gold account) on this xbox your wife and kids can also play sharing your Gold features and games.

This is what I do when my two boys want to play each other on separate xbox's and the same game...

Console 1 (home Xbox) kid #1 signs in

Console 2 , I sign in (GOLD account), kid #2 signs in

they play together

Hi James S, my name is Courtney and I would be happy to help.

To understand a little more about the problem you are presenting, I would love to know if you are the family administrator? According to information obtained from a thread on Microsoft, I found that XBF Moderator Meryem R said that to remove his ex-partner from the Microsoft family, he will need his consent. You will receive an email to confirm that the account will be deleted, and you will need to accept it.

For more information, you can access the following link:

As I mentioned previously, some of the information provided was found from a post on the Microsoft forum, so I thought it would be a good idea to share it with you.

I hope this information is useful to you, if you have any other questions let me know.

Best regards,
Courtney.

When my x-wife tried this she got "child already in a family" message or something similar. From what I read if I add my x-wife to "the family" then she can join and then delete me as a member of the family. Is this correct? I think somebody needs to clarify
for every divorced member out there exactly how each parent can have all of their kids on each of their accounts without the other parent seeing their information and credit card data. Thanks.
