    How to delete 2nd profile, or at least logout and login to correct profile xbox companion...


    So about a year ago I updated the email of my xbox live acct, it used to be yahoo, now it's gmail... so when I went to login I used the new email, however that seemed to create a new xbox profile for me. I didn't much care at the time, but now I download the xbox companion app on my laptop, there is an offer for free Ultimate Game Pass or something, and only that profile is selectable. I already have Ultimate Game Pass on my actual xbox profile, however when I select the option to sign out and sign in it just automatically brings up the profile I created by mistake, with no option to type in the the email and password for my true xbox acct. I would very much like to remove the 2nd acct so I can game under my actual acct. Is there a way to delete this profile for good?

    :)

    How to delete 2nd profile, or at least logout and login to correct profile xbox companion app pc

    Thank you for contact us! I'm Anderson, an Independent Consultant and a Microsoft user like you.

    Good evening

    Open the Xbox Companion App on your PC.

    Click on the profile icon or your account picture in the top right corner of the app. This should open a drop-down menu.

    From the drop-down menu, select "Sign Out" to log out of the current profile.

    Once you're signed out, click on the profile icon again, and this time, select "Add or switch" to add or switch to a different profile.

    You should see a list of available profiles associated with your Microsoft account. Select the profile you want to use or sign in with.

    If you're not seeing your correct profile listed or if the Xbox Companion App still automatically logs you into the unintended profile, you can try the following additional steps:

    Completely close the Xbox Companion App by right-clicking on its icon in the taskbar and selecting "Close window" or "Quit."

    Open the "Settings" app on your PC by pressing the Windows key + I.

    Navigate to "Apps" or "Apps & features" in the Settings.

    Find the Xbox Companion App from the list of installed apps and click on it.

    Click on the "Advanced options" link.

    In the Advanced options, click on the "Reset" button. This will reset the app and clear any saved data.

    Once the reset is complete, launch the Xbox Companion App again and try signing in with your correct profile.

    Microsoft Jigsaw, wrong login info, now can't change

    You have to log out of the incorrectly logged in account on the console companion. Click on your profile, then select
    Sign out from the menu just below your gamertag. Then log into the correct profile. That should change the login on Microsoft Jigsaw.

    Might and magic clash of heros loading issues

    Hey there Gillion! This sounds like it might be a corrupt profile issue.

    Let's try redownloading the profile to see if that yields any better results. To do that:


    Let us know how that goes and we'll work with you from there. =)

    Changed e-mail

    Does the correct gamertag show up in the top right when you login to xbox.com?. Also you can try deleting / redownloading your profile to get the most current info from the Live Servers.
