    I have forgotten my password, and I can't access my account, even though I have my...


    Hello,

    I have tried to access my Microsoft account for a week now, which contains several games. I have forgotten my password, and when I try to reset via SMS (which has worked before) I only get the message that "I need to try another method".

    I have tried this several days now, with and without my VPN. How can I get access to my account again?

    Thanks beforehand,

    Mattias

    :)

    I can't access my game even though I have it on disc

    Hi Mikołaj, my name is Rodrigo. I'm an Independent Advisor and a member of the Microsoft community and I'd love to assist you today.

    I am sorry to hear that.

    Please, uninstall the game, power cycle your console, and then reinstall the game.

    After uninstalling the game, power cycle the console.

    Turn off your console by pressing the Xbox button on the front of the console for about 10 seconds, until it shuts down completely.

    Unplug the console's power cable. Wait 60 seconds.

    Important Be sure to wait at least 60 seconds. This step resets the power supply.

    Plug the console power cable back in.

    Press the Xbox button on your console to turn it on.

    Source: https://support.xbox.com/help/hardware-network/power/restart-or-power-cycle-console

    Finally, reinstall the game.

    Let me know if it works!

    I can’t access my money on my Microsoft account even though it says I have the money

    Hi there! 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 Microsoft purchase.

    That is quite odd. Kindly confirm if the region of your Microsoft balance is matched with your Xbox account and Microsoft Store region by signing your account on account.microsoft.com > payment and billing > payment option.

    Note: Ensure that your payment method region, Xbox account and Microsoft Store regions are matched to successfully purchase in Microsoft Store.

    If you have confirmed that the regions are matched, try to purchase again on Microsoft Xbox Store online web browser to see if you will be able to use your Microsoft balance.

    If the issue persists, I highly recommend you reach out to Microsoft Xbox Support for further assistance as they have the tools and resources to properly investigate this and possibly purchase using your Microsoft balance on your behalf:

    https://support.xbox.com/en-US/contact-us/

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

    Best Regards,
    Darhyl
