how do I change/update my microsoft account that is old/expired

Hi and thanks for reaching Microsoft Xbox gamer's community.

Hope you're doing great today Grant

For this you need to access to the Microsoft account and add a new alias
Once added enable this new alias as a sign in method and then you can delete the expired/old email

If maybe you need to know how to do this, check this article

Understood. After writing the post, I realized the main things I need will expire and I can create a new account and renew on there. A couple of other questions I have:

• Can my Microsoft windows license be attached to a different Microsoft account?
  
• If I change the email associated to the old Microsoft account, can I reuse it on a new one?
  

In the top right corner of my Xbox it shows an old email I don't want on there and yes I changed the billing and Microsoft email but I can seem to get rid of that old one appearing but when I sign in to my Microsoft account it's still the old email so that
might be the problem anyone know how to change the sign in email for Microsoft accounts?

I read about names getting recycled if it becomes available will my suffix vanish if the name expires or do i need to change my name and then if it becomes available in the future change to it after that also it was my old account and i got it perma banned
for modding on dungeon defenders i was underage and did not know better. So do they recycle names to banned accounts also if the name gets recycled how will you know will you just be able to search for gamertags and it would not pop up anymore.

you cannot transfer games/DLC or save from one account to another but you can change the account email address. It can be a multi-step process however I do not know that you can make an account a child account once validated as an adult, if that's what
you want to do.

Add an email address verify it works

update primary email address, make sure it works

Remove old email address.
