How do you get your Minecraft Gamertag to be the same as your XBox Gamertag?

Keep signing into your Microsoft account and it will most likely fix itself. Your problem seems to be that you’re not successful in linking.

Give it time and it will most likely change automatically.

once you delete your profile, how do you get your profile back on your xbox? that's what i don't understand, do you just make the same gamertag and avatar?

Hi Mindeking,

Thanks for reaching out to the forums! Concerning your GamerTag, each Microsoft account automatically has a GamerTag assigned to it unless the user is setting up the account on an Xbox console or on the Xbox PC app in which case the user would be asked if they want to change the GamerTag. You do have the option to change your GamerTag for free during the first time and you would be charged again if you wanted to change it later How to change your Xbox gamertag | Xbox Support . As far as your MineCraft account is concerned , can you send us a screenshot of the error you are receiving when you try to enter your GamerTag on the MineCraft launcher so that we may better assist you?
