Hi there, my name is Gerardo, and I'm an Xbox player, just like you. I'll be happy to assist you with any questions or concerns you may have.

If you have forgotten your Microsoft account email, please follow the steps below:

1. Visit the following link:

https://account.live.com/username/recover

2. Enter an alternate email address that you have previously associated with your account or a phone number linked to the account.

NOTE: If you don't have an alternate email or a linked phone number, unfortunately, they won't be able to remind you of the primary email for your account, even if you know your Xbox Gamertag. This is due to Xbox Support's privacy and security policies.

Nevertheless, I recommend trying the suggestions provided in the following link:

Thanks for your understanding, and please keep in mind that in this public forum, we are just players like you trying to help other players. We do not have access to any user accounts or information.

Best regards.

Thank you for the assistance of what I could try but unfortunately I fall under the category of not knowing any alternative emails connected to my old account.

Thank for the suggestions though! 😊

Hello again.

I'm sorry to hear that you don't know any alternative email addresses associated with your Microsoft account. If that's the case, I'm afraid there's no other way than for you to try to remember the email yourself.

I'm sorry for the situation, and I wish you the best of luck!

Best regards.

Hello T, this is Manuela. I'm an Independent Advisor and community user like you, ready to assist with this.

Not a Microsoft employee.

I'm sorry to hear you lost access to your Microsoft account.
When we lose access to our accounts, we can try to recover it by following all the recommendations available in this related article:

If none of the options work, the last resource is submitting the Microsoft account recovery form:

The gamertag is not enough proof of account ownership.

Lastly, and as a reminder, please notice that no one at Microsoft can change account details, or send password reset links to you, this is for security policies.

Hi. My name is Brilliant, an independent advisor, happy to assist you today.

You will have to use the possible email/username and password combinations you think are linked to that account. With that, you'll be able to find which login details are for which account.

I hope this helps.
