    How to password protect your Xbox LIVE profile

    Xbox LIVE password overview

    It is possible to download your Xbox LIVE profile to several different consoles. You may need to do this if you have more than one Xbox 360 console, or you want to play games at a friend's house. In such a situation, you may want to password protect your Xbox LIVE account so that no one else can sign in using your profile.

    Set the console to remember your password

    Once you have downloaded your Xbox LIVE profile to a console, you will be asked if you want the console to remember your password. The Remember Password option is usually off by default. This means that you will be asked for your Microsoft account password every time you sign into Xbox LIVE.

    If you don't want to be asked for your Microsoft account password every time you sign into Xbox LIVE, select the Remember Password option.

    Change the password protection on your profile

    You are required to set the Remember Password option after you download your Xbox LIVE profile. However, you can change the password protection on your Xbox LIVE profile any time.

    If you don't need a password to sign in:

    Sign into your Xbox LIVE profile. After you have entered your Microsoft account password, select the Remember Password option.

    If you choose the Remember Password option, you will not be asked for your Microsoft account password the next time you sign into your Xbox LIVE profile.

    If you need a password to sign in:

    You can restrict access to your Xbox LIVE profile on any console using your Microsoft account password.

    Steps to follow

    1) Sign in using your Xbox LIVE gamertag.

    2) Under Settings, select Account and then Account Security

    3) Choose the option for Password at Sign In.

    4) Select Require Password Here

    You will be asked for your Microsoft account password the next time you sign into your Xbox LIVE profile.

    How to password protect your Xbox LIVE profile remotely

    If you downloaded your Xbox LIVE profile to another console and it is not password protected, or someone has compromised your password, you can change the password from a remote location so that no one else can access your profile.

    Change your Microsoft account

    1) Sign into accounts.live.com using your Microsoft account.

    2) Go to Account Information and, next to Password, click Change.

    You can also use your console to change your Microsoft account password.

    Note: If the Xbox LIVE profile you downloaded does not require a password to sign in (You selected the Remember Password option), you will not be able to restrict someone from signing into your Xbox profile even if you change your Microsoft account password.

    You can remove your Microsoft account password so that other people cannot access your Xbox profile on other consoles. This will ensure that a password is required before signing into your Xbox profile.

    Remotely set a profile password from a computer:

    1) Sign into your Xbox LIVE account.

    2) Under Settings, select Account, and then Account Security

    3) Choose the option for Password at Sign In.

    4) Select On All Other Consoles.

    Once you have done this, a password will be required to sign into your Xbox LIVE profile on all other consoles.

    HELP!!!

    Hi there,

    only one xbox live account can be connected to a specific Microsoft Account, so if you want to 'upgrade' an offline profile to a xbox live account you will need to use a Microsoft Account that doesn't have an xbox live account already connected.

    So if you don't have an Microsoft Account without an Xbox live account connected you will need to create a new Microsoft Account if you want to 'upgrade' that offline profile.

    Just to be sure this is the link with the steps on how to create a Xbox live account from an offline profile:

    Can I Connect My Offline Profile To My Windows Live Profile?

    Hi there,

    You can upgrade your offline profile to an profile with xbox live access, but you will need an Microsoft account (windows live account) that doesn't already have an xbox account connected.

    Since you mention that there is already an xbox account connected to your Microsoft account, you will first need to remove it. This can be done by

    1. downloading that profile that is already connected to your Microsoft account

    2. Move that xbox account to a other/new Microsoft account (this can be done after 30 days, and is a security measure)

    3 now you are able to promote your offline account and connect it to your Microsoft account (the windows live account) since it no longer holds an xbox account.

    4. When the offline profile is Signed in, press the guide button and select 'connect to live' and follow the steps.

    If you have any questions just ask.

    How do I unlink my Microsoft and Xbox accounts

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

    Please be informed that a single email address or a single Microsoft account will always have one Xbox profile or gamertag. It's not possible to have more than one Xbox profile in one single Microsoft account. So if you somehow managed to link the 2, high chances one of them is none existence. Unfortunately, you will not be able to unlink the 2.

    xbox.com account vs xbox console account

    Hi there,

    whenever you use one single Microsoft account (email address etc) it should show the same gamertag and information anywhere.

    If both do have different Microsoft accounts then there is no way to merge them.

    If both have the same Microsoft account and your console is connected to xbox live I suggest contacting Xbox support via
    support.xbox.com/contact-us since there should be only one connected.

    If one on the console isn't connected to an Microsoft account you will need to connect it to a Microsoft account (via guide button - join xbox live) that doesn't already have a xbox live account connected.
