How do I get my account back without the email?

Hi Jackson

Sorry to hear about that, however, kindly note that since this is a public forum, most of us here are all end-users like you as well and have no access to accounts.

With this, you may use the recovery form here: https://account.live.com/acsr (https://support.microsoft.com/en-us/account-bil...)

You may also follow the steps here: https://support.microsoft.com/en-us/account-bil... and fill out the account reinstatement form here: https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/concern/Account...

Hi Skittle,

Thank you for posting in Microsoft Xbox Community. I am sorry that you are still prompted that you have to buy the game, even if you already purchased Minecraft. As part of our initial troubleshooting, kindly make sure that you are logged in using the same Microsoft account where you purchased the game. If you purchased it from Microsoft store, you may check it by going to https://account.microsoft.com/billing/orders

Once confirmed that you are using the correct account, please follow my recommendations below. If you don't see Minecraft, it means that you purchased the game using a different Microsoft account.

1. Delete the Minecraft launcher that exists on your computer.

2. Restart your computer.

3. Install legacy Minecraft launcher for Windows.

https://aka.ms/minecraftClientWindows

Once reinstalled, continue with these instructions.

1. Open Minecraft launcher.

2. If you are already logged in, click on your image and Gamer tag in the upper left corner of the screen and then on "Logout".

3. After logging out, delete all accounts registered in the launcher by clicking on the "X" next to each account.

4. In the Minecraft launcher, enter the Microsoft email and password.

If you bought Minecraft from Microsoft Store, you have to go to Microsoft Store>My Library then look for Minecraft and install.

Make sure you're signed into the Store app with the same Microsoft account that you used to buy the game.

If the above steps did not work, please clear the cache of the Microsoft store. Go to Settings> System> Apps & features> Click Store> Advanced options> Reset.

After the reset, log in with the Microsoft account that has Minecraft Java and reinstall Launcher.

Hope this solves your issue, please do let me know how it goes.

Regards,

Alvaro

Hi,

I wonder how many people have this Gamertag ??? 😂

If yours is the one without suffix - it only has less than 1000 gamerscore.

The question is, how many email accounts do you own ?

You can try them on the login screen of the website and click on Forgot password.

If it's the right email account you will be able to reset the password and get your account back.

If you don't own that account email anymore and didn't add your phone number it's not possible to get it back.

someone has my email and pass. for xbox . but im still signed in to my account on the commputer. how do i get my account back?

Hi Ryan! My name is Darhyl and I’d be more than happy to help you with your query.

I'm sorry you are experiencing this with your forgotten email address.

According to the official Xbox website: https://support.xbox.com/en-US/help/account-profile/manage-account/forgot-microsoft-account-solution Kindly perform the following workarounds to locate the email address linked to your Microsoft account:

Note: The solution to this issue may take a lot of steps.

"Go to xbox.com and try signing in with the email address that you think is associated with your Microsoft account.

If you can sign in, the email address and password you entered are valid. The gamertag that’s associated with this email address will be displayed in the upper-right corner of the screen.

If you can’t sign in, check your other email inboxes for messages about your Xbox subscription or Xbox offers. This may help you determine which email address is associated with your Xbox profile.

Note: Think back to when you created your Microsoft account. Were you using a different internet service provider for email at the time?

If you’re part of an Xbox family group, have an organizer (adult account) look up your account info with the Xbox Family Settings app.

Note: This step only works if you’re set as a member of the Xbox family group. Organizers can’t review the account info of other organizers in a group.

Steps for the organizer:

Open the Xbox Family Settings app on their mobile device.
Choose the member whose account info isn’t known.
Select the Info bubble next to the user’s gamertag.
Review the info under Account email for the Microsoft account that’s associated with their Xbox profile."

Thank you for your kindness and understanding! Please feel free to let me know if you need anything else.

Best Regards,
Darhyl
