I have played minecraft on phone with xbox profile which i didnt rememberd password. After many years, recently, i bought minecraft java + bedrock on new email. And after all that time i finally found password for my old email with some achivments and progress on bedrock edition. As i know, bedrock minecraft is conected to xbox account. So can i change my old xbox account email to new sso i got java and progress on bedrock? Or is there any other way to transfer old aaccount?

To change the email address on an Xbox profile, you will have to change the email address on the Microsoft account (which is associated with the Xbox profile).

Read here on how to do that: https://support.xbox.com/en-US/my-account/microsoft-account/change-email-sign-in-for-microsoft-accou...

Hello!

Hope you are well. I'll be glad to assist you.

Unfortunately, you can't merge two Xbox accounts or transfer game progress (like Minecraft Bedrock achievements) from one Xbox profile to another. Both accounts operate completely independently.

I regret any inconvenience this may cause.

Best regards!

Hey Mayden92!

The email that you created the Microsoft account will always be associated with the account because it's the email that created the account.

You can change the (primary) email that you use to sign into your Microsoft account. Once you've changed it, it'll always be the email that you will use to sign into your Microsoft account / Xbox profile.

Hi there,

you can't merge accounts itself or fully move the Xbox Live Account to a different Microsoft Account, but something that could work for you is changing the primary email address for the Microsoft Account.

My assumption what steps might be required are:

- Change the primary email on the New Unused Xbox Account account to something else (you might need a new MS account/email for that) so that the Wanted email address is no longer attached to a Microsoft Account.

- Change the primary email on the Old Xbox account to the new wanted email address, so that that Wanted email address can be used to sign in to the Xbox main account.
