  1. How to consolidate microsoft profiles and get rid of an old email


    I have 2 microsoft accounts. One that is linked to my xbox account, but this account doesn't use my current email address. The other account I accidently created when I got a new windows laptop, this account uses my current email. I'd like to consolidate and tie my current email to the xbox account, and delete the old email. Is this possible?

    :)

    How to consolidate microsoft profiles and get rid of an old email

    Hi. My name is Brilliant and I am happy to assist you today.

    Unfortunately for security reasons, it's not possible to merge or combine Microsoft accounts, nor can you transfer such things as your game progress or gamertag, account purchases and balance from one account to another.

    For more details on the above kindly visit: https://support.microsoft.com/account-billing/combining-microsoft-accounts-06b122ca-7323-48f5-8cd7-c3408bcc2123#:~:text=For%20security%20reasons%2C%20it's%20not,from%20one%20account%20to%20another

    I hope this helps resolve your query.

    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?

    Invalid email address, help please

    Thanks guys, I wasn't able to open up the link but just to confirm, how do I change an email address on my old profile that I am trying to get rid of. My knowledge on the Xbox is fairly limited so if you could let me know that will be much appreciated

    XBOX ONE asking for password to old email address.

    this just started to happen for me I had to go to add new and enter current email address and password and it made the account but I don't know how to get rid of the old one, but it keeps referring my account back to the old email address in which I removed
    from aliases

    Lost gamertag after Black Screen of death reset

    Hi XBF Meryem R

    Thank you for your response. I’m doing well!

    I tried using the old email address but it keeps saying that it doesn’t exist. I switched from that old email to my current one to consolidate the many addresses I had and for payments etc to be on the same account.

    I’ll get in touch with the support team. Hopefully I get more luck as earlier today it wouldn’t work.

    Thanks again.
