I forgot my email for an old account, how do I get it back?

Hi Ryan! My name is Darhyl and I’d be more than happy to help you with your query.

I'm sorry you are experiencing this with your forgotten email address.

According to the official Xbox website: https://support.xbox.com/en-US/help/account-profile/manage-account/forgot-microsoft-account-solution Kindly perform the following workarounds to locate the email address linked to your Microsoft account:

Note: The solution to this issue may take a lot of steps.

"Go to xbox.com and try signing in with the email address that you think is associated with your Microsoft account.

If you can sign in, the email address and password you entered are valid. The gamertag that’s associated with this email address will be displayed in the upper-right corner of the screen.

If you can’t sign in, check your other email inboxes for messages about your Xbox subscription or Xbox offers. This may help you determine which email address is associated with your Xbox profile.

Note: Think back to when you created your Microsoft account. Were you using a different internet service provider for email at the time?

If you’re part of an Xbox family group, have an organizer (adult account) look up your account info with the Xbox Family Settings app.

Note: This step only works if you’re set as a member of the Xbox family group. Organizers can’t review the account info of other organizers in a group.

Steps for the organizer:

Open the Xbox Family Settings app on their mobile device.
Choose the member whose account info isn’t known.
Select the Info bubble next to the user’s gamertag.
Review the info under Account email for the Microsoft account that’s associated with their Xbox profile."

Thank you for your kindness and understanding! Please feel free to let me know if you need anything else.

Best Regards,
Darhyl

Oh, I forgot. My old account, BlueGummiBear64, has like 10,000 points.

Anyways, how do I get back into it since I'm locked out?

I forgot the password and I need the password to enter the account because I was an idiot and made it do that. ._.

Yes, and I completed the migration, but I forgot the email to which my minecraft account is linked, how can I get either the money back or my account, do I need to complain to mojang themselves?

That is a tough one. I actually had the same thing happen to me. My account was created in 2010 and when I first got the Xbox One I created a new account because I couldn't figure out how to log in to my old account. One day I decided to drop the new one
and do what you're trying to do.

Long story short, I was able to get my account back and the only reason was because I remembered what email I ended up using. The funny thing is, back then the email wasn't even mine. In 2010 I just typed whatever and it turned out to be a real address so
went ahead and used it. I ended up doing the whole forgot password and forgot email thing to get the account back. What they did was that I would provide my current email to change the old one and they would make me wait 30 days until I could use the account.
After that I had full access and changed everything around.

Of course the thing to take away from this is that I actually remembered the email and honestly without knowing it, I would have never been able to get my account back. Just know though, once you figure out the email that you used, don't worry about having
access to it. You will just simply have to wait 30 days to get full access to your old Xbox account.

Best of luck. I know how bad it is to lose years of effort.
