    How do I change my microsoft account email without access to the email the account is...


    My fathers previous hotmail account is linked to my xbox account but it got flagged and to get in we need a code sent to an account that we cant access anymore. Is there any way to change the email linked to the xbox account so that I dont lose that account?

    :)

    How do I change my microsoft account email without access to the email the account is linked with?

    Hi,

    If you're able to sign into the Microsoft account, the best option is to try and go to https://account.microsoft.com/security to select the option to update your security info. When presented for the prompts to send a verification code, choose I
    don't have any of these
    . This will then let you delete the old security info then add a new one. The catch is because you won't have access to the old security info anymore, the 30-day wait will be triggered. Please visit https://support.microsoft.com/en-us/help/12428/microsoft-account-security-info-verification-codes for
    more information about this + know more on what features are temporarily unavailable during the 30-day wait.

    bltstephen,

    I had to do the same thing about my email address a while ago. The steps on how to do this are outlined at "How to change the
    email address associated with your Microsoft account
    ". I recommend doing this first and making sure everything works before making any changes to your gamer tag.

    double profile in the xbox account

    Hi there!

    Thanks for reaching out to us with this issue. If you have access to both accounts, then you can do a "shuffle" of the account email alias to free it up for use on your other account. You can find the instructions on how to make the changes in our support
    article entitled How to change the email address associated with your Microsoft account that will detail on how
    to make changes to the email alias used for sign in.

    Give it a try and let us know the results!

    I hope that this helps out!
