How do I change my Games for Windows LIVE! e-mail

Hello, I have a games for windows live account on e-mail A but would like to change the account's e-mail to e-mail
B, both are from hotmail/microsoft.

I would create another account but then I would lose my game keys.

I tried to search for a GFWL forum but there is none, tried looking through xbox.com support but there's no PC support.

Cannot Change Windows Live Email

My e-mail was hacked, but I cannot delete it because I am connected to Windows Live through my XBOX. I cannot change the e-mail online, and I sold my XBOX. How do I change my Windows Live e-mail address so I can delete that account? HELP!

 

help me!

You can only use one e-mail address per gamer tag. To resolve your issue you should get a new e-mail address and then change your current e-mail to the new e-mail. The steps on how to do that are listed below in the link.



Managing my Windows LIVE ID (WLID)

 

Hey there Lord Testiculus!

In order to switch the email associated with your account to email B, you will need to log into account.live.com with your current Live account. Once you have logged in, follow the steps to change
the email address you use to sign in to your Microsoft account.

Please let us know if you were able to change your email address and if further assistance is needed and we will be here to help.

 

Hello, I don't want to make a new alias, I want to change the e-mail so I can login into GFWL with e-mail B and forget e-mail A completely

 

Unfortunately, it's not as simple as just changing the e-mail; you need to go through the steps that Mister Quimby has linked for you if you want to keep both so that you can associate e-mail A (which is tied to account A) with Account B (which has e-mail
B associated with it). Because A is tied to an account, it cannot be used for another account.

If you don't want to keep both, you could try
closing/canceling the account associated with the e-mail that you want to use. Then the e-mail would no longer be associated with an account and should be available to you. Please note that you'll lose any licenses/content access associated with that account
if you close it.

 

I wanted to completely change the e-mail tied to my GFWL account to another one and forget the current one/delete it but I guess that's not possible. Your system is a complete mess, you need to have BACKUP e-mail to have a e-mail, when you create a outlook/hotmail
account you need to have another e-mail (WHAT'S THE POINT OF CREATING A HOTMAIL ONE THEN?) so the logic goes like that:

Want to create e-mail A -> to create e-mail A you need to have e-mail B -> to create e-mail B you need to have e-mail C -> to create e-mail C you need to have e-mail D -> etc

Also you're able to do this:

E-mail Y backup is: E-mail X

E-mail X backup is: E-mail Y

What? what happens then? a loop of confirmations?

I tried to change the GFWL main alias to a different one but it kept giving me this "e-mail already exist" message or something. At the end of the day the system is so confuse that you get lost in the middle of so many different e-mails, aliases and microsoft/xbox
accounts, this system is complete garbage.
