    My main/original email account that I created my xbox profile with is being spammed and I want to close it. Is there a way to change the email address my xbox account is linked to in order to close the original? I don't want to lose my xbox account or gamertag. Too many years and friends in there

    :)

    Hi Chris, yes. You got it

    Exactly like that, if you deactivate A keep in mind that email received and sent with that email (alias) are going to be deleted as well

    And yes, you can set B as your primary alias

    OK I think I'm understanding this now. For arguments sake, email A is the original email I used to set up my xbox account. Email B is the one I set up as an alias.

    I can make B my primary and then deactivate A? And all my xbox account information will still be there.

    Also, once I deactivate A, can I use B for other things, like a normal email address?

    Hi, sorry if I wasn't clear

    In this case alias = email address

    Your Microsoft account itself can be used and linked with different email addresses (aliases)

    Actually, yes. You can add a new alias to your Microsoft account and delete the one that are receiving these spam emails

    If necessary please follow the steps on this article in order to create a new outlook email and link it to your Microsoft account
