    How to recover account with only the gamertag?


    I had an Xbox one stolen years ago, and was thinking about getting a new one. I don’t remember what email I had associated with the account though, all I remember is the Gamertag, and I made a new account and can go view my old inactive account so I know it still exist. I want to recover it so I don’t have to re-purchase all my downloaded games. If anyone know if this is possible please let me know how!

    :)

    How to recover account with only Gamertag

    Hi, I hope you're doing great out there. I am an Independent advisor and I am here to help you with your concern.

    I'm sorry but no, we need to have at least the Microsoft email address so we can go through recovering the account.

    No worries, I have here a link that has methods where you can possibly locate the email address. Kindly check this link:

    Hi there Miles_476.

    I am Lumie and I would love to assist you today.

    I am so sorry you are having issues finding your alias for Microsoft.

    The first idea is to directly log into your account with your phone number.

    You can find your username using this recovery tool: [https://account.live.com/username/recover] by inputting related data.

    If this does not work, you can try to look for email receipts on alternative accounts or find accounts you made be logged into on different services.

    Here is more information: [support.microsoft.com/account-billing/b2049472-3b8f-27d3-61c6-67a668453f4c]

    I hope this helps!

    Let me know if I can be of any further assistance. -Lumie

    Delete the Gamertag from the Xbox 360 Console. Only delete the Gamertag. Recover the Gamertag. You will need the Windows Live ID and Password to Recover that account.

    How do I recover an account with only the gamertag?

    Hi PhantomPhnx, my name is Joel, I'm here to help you with any problems or questions you may have.

    PhantomPhnx, I am sorry that something like this has happened to you, but I must inform you that it is totally impossible to regain access to a Microsoft account with only the username or gamertag. For obvious reasons and Privacy Policies, Microsoft will not provide any sensitive information.

    Microsoft only has one account recovery system, but to use it, it is mandatory to know the account and all its data. Only when the user can prove to the system that he is the legitimate owner of that account, the system will grant access to that account. I hope you can understand the situation.

    Go to https://account.microsoft.com/. Once there, they must click on the circle in the upper right corner of the screen. Then click login.

    If as a user you do not have any of the recovery options connected to your account, you should click on the selection that says "I do not have any of these". When you click on that link, they will be sent to a Microsoft form. You must complete it, including all pertinent information, and Microsoft will contact you and try to help them recover to regain access to your account.

    If the user has forgotten their login information, they should go to login. Choose your login options. This will ask you to enter an alternate email address associated with the account or a phone number.

    If the user does not have another linked account to help provide account access, it is recommended to create another account. Once they create the account, they must use the new account to log in and select "forgotten password". By choosing the option "I forgot my password", you will be sent the link to the form mentioned above. completed the form Microsoft will contact you.

    Regards
