Fortnite Login Issue after changing Primary e-mail.

Try changing it online instead. Go to
http://www.account.live.com Login with your current Microsoft Account e-mail address and as soon as your login, under overview you will see primary account alias, and that will show your current e-mail. Under that you will see the option to add or change
primary alias... so just fill in required info and that should do it for you.

Responded to one of the e-mails and specifying that this is not my account, and that I no longer wished to receive e-mails regard it, may have fixed this issue. Because the e-mail is my primary login, it seems to have erased all contact preferences without deleting the account, so now that I've logged back in, it seems to have automatically re-registered the e-mail address as my primary point of contact.

lol I got that UnveilingGold28, pretty clever. CommunistRanger, you can also modify your primary Microsoft Account alias by going to
http://www.account.live.com. Login with your email and password for your account and under the (primary alias) it should say "add or change aliases" click here, it may ask you to identify yourself
with a security code, if not just proceed to either create a new email address or add an existing. After you have done that just verify that e-mail by check your e-mail for a confirmation e-mail. Once you confirm you can set the new e-mail address as primary
alias. If you have issue changing it because your primary alias has not been verified, you can try going to
www.verifyme.microsoft.com click it will say to request your code sign-in, click "sign-in" and an option you may get will be to change your email if you no longer have access to the previous primary
email.

Good news everybody! I finally managed to change the e-mail associated with my gamertag! I will describe how it was done.

My problem:

I had one original gamertag that was used on my xbox and had achievements and purchases assigned to it. The e-mail address however was old and not in use. Then, due to Windows 8 and a random sign in to xbox.com, I had a 2nd gamertag, this one had nothing
assigned to it, BUT it was assigned to my preferred, primary, e-mail account. Googling this issue led me nowhere, solutions I saw was "make a 3rd e-mail account, move gamertag to that, them move to the first etc."

Solution:

This solution is based on changing whats regarded as the primary alias to your Microsoft ID. Your MS ID is also whats used for xbox.com and the xbox.

1. Log into https://account.live.com/. Look at overview. Here, add a primary alias. Create a new at @outlook.com address. Note that this will be the login for this account in the future!

2. After you have added the alias, make that alias primary.

3. Then, remove the old e-mail you want freed. The e-mail address you want to use on the other Microsoft ID.

Then, we move on to the MS ID you want to use. In my case, this MS ID was associated to an old expired e-mail account.

1. Log into https://account.live.com/. Look at overview. Here, add a primary alias. Use the e-mail you freed on the other account.

2. After you have added the alias, make that alias primary.

3. Remove the expired old e-mail address.
