    I accidentally made my account a child account and don’t know how to fix it I made another account to be my “parent” but none of my stuff is on there

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

    good evening

    To change your child account back to an adult account, you'll need to have the parent account take control of the child account. Here are the steps you can take:

    Log in to the parent account on your Xbox console.

    Go to the settings menu, and then select "Accounts."

    Select "Family settings" and then "Manage family members."

    Select the child account you want to change, and then select "Change to adult account."

    Once you've completed these steps, the child account will be changed to an adult account, and you'll be able to access all of the content and settings that were previously restricted.

    If you want the access your content, you can try to transfer the license for your games, and other content, from your child account to your parent account. You can do this by following these steps:

    On your Xbox, go to Settings > Accounts > “Downloaded content”

    Find the game or content that you want to transfer the license for, and then select it.

    Press the “Menu” button on your controller, and then select “Manage game or Manage App.

    Select “Move”, “Download” or “License transfer” depending on what’s available to move the game or content to your new account.

    The accounts I made don’t work

    Microsoft likesto keep their services a cluster free as possible by having 11 accounts that you even said your self you have not used them yet Microsoft is sure to ban them. It is because they are using a name someone else may want or they could be impersonating
    someone else. These are only a few reasons why they are banned, I personally can't do anything about this all i can suggest is that you stick too one account. It is very annoying when theres so many unused accounts just taking up space for no reason.

    You must know one thing... Here on the forums no one has the ability to access any account or help fix any bans...
