Gamertag known but need to find original email link to it

Dru0324 · May 18, 2021

I'm hoping someone can help me...

I recently had to reset my xbox one console under the advisement of xbox support. Little did I know that the email address link to my original gamertag was no longer available after reset. I have the gamertag and I do know all the necessary information and password. For the life of me I do not recall the stupid outlook email address. When I tried to use the phone number verification it only blanks out the email address associated to it which is stupid since I'm the one trying to verify my own information. Is there any other way to find the email address in full with just your gamertag? I've already tried checking my emails for any possible clues to what the email would be but no luck. Hopefully someone out there can help me out!

My email is linked to my original gamertag

I understand. The account's primary email address cannot be linked to multiple accounts or Xbox profiles because it's unique in every accounts. Your original gamertag with no suffix must be linked to a different email address. It is because, if you linked your Minecraft account to your Microsoft account (with gamertag that has no numbers) you won't be able to set or claim the same gamertag with suffix as they're technically the same gamertag and the numbers or suffix is just an identifier for each unique account.

I suggest to try to enter your phone number or emails or skype username if you had it linked to your original account here https://account.live.com/username/recover to find your correct account.

You may need to sign into your offline profile on the console and select Join Xbox LIVE using a different email. After that, if you want to move your new gamertag onto the original email, but the original email has another gamertag already, then follow
this link and skip to the steps listed under "Notes".
