    Help with profile switching


    Is there a shortcut to switch between active profiles when there are more than one signed in? I've been playing on my profile/gt online and my xbox will sometimes switch to my wife or kids profile if they are signed in at the same time. Is there something
    I'm doing to cause this or is it a bug? Anyone else have this happen?

    :)

    I've noticed if anyone has a controller in their hand and you go back home, it changes to the one it sees holding the controller. Other than that, not really.. You can switch profiles back pretty easy, though.

    Put it on manual sign in. This is what I had to do to stop it auto signing in my wife. Then is all I do is when I turn on my xbox Is say "xbox sign in " and it signs me in. No more auto sign ins of others.

    new.xbox, need help with profile switch

    you can't move profiles to another profile. one email per gamertag. if it's an xbox one then one person needs gold and to set the home option. if it's a 360 you would have to have 2 accounts with gold to access the gold features

    switched account profile please help!!!

    Hello Joshua,

    If this is a case of a Microsoft account becoming compromised, it would be best to attempt following our
    Xbox One Microsoft compromised account solution support article for various ways that you can attempt to retrieve
    the account.

    You may also reach out to our customer support team so that this can be further reviewed/investigated.

    Try this out for us and then let us know the results.

    Best wishes!
