I don't know what microsoft account my minecraft is attached to

ELeigh22 · Nov 1, 2022

I've had Minecraft for over ten years and haven't had any issues before the forced-migration. Since then, it was fine at first but when my computer logged me out, I've been totally stuck. I cannot, for the life of me, figure out what email I attached my Minecraft account to. I don't use Microsoft in general so any accounts I have were created in-the-moment and when they were required. None that are linked to my phone number or my regular email have my Minecraft purchase on them. I have confirmation emails that the account was migrated but they don't show any additional details. I know my Minecraft username, and I have a potential Microsoft "gamer tag" that appears on my launcher that I can't properly access (due to not knowing the account information).

Is there any way to get this account back or figure out what email I need to be trying to get back into? I'm confident I could answer security questions, etc, and I know a fair bit of my old mojang information, but I'm stumped in terms of finding out where my Minecraft account went. Mojang said it's out of their hands since the account has migrated. Any help is appreciated!

Hope you're doing great today despite this ELEIGH22

As you don't remember the account email used to migrate your account, I can advise you to fill the account recovery form, in that way you're going to submit a ticket with Microsoft account recovery team https://account.live.com/acsr

You can try all the emails you remember or if you had a phone number attached to the account, you can use that too.
Sadly, an account cannot be recovered with the gamertag alone.

Also, you could try alternative methods to recover your account here:

Please note that no one here including Microsoft Support is capable to send password reset links for security policies

Yeah, the backup email is not mine, when I click on the link it says I'm already signed into that account, but I cannot log into Minecraft still

Update: I don't know why, I don't know how, but for some bizzare reason that I couldn't WISH to explain I somehow logged into the Minecraft launcher with my microsoft account WITHOUT KNOWING ANY CREDENTIALS AT ALL!!!

I DON'T KNOW HOW THIS HAPPENED

I now have access to my Minecraft (NOT Microsoft) account without knowing the email or the password.
What do I do now???
