I know my past gamer tag but forgot my exact email and want to recover

Hello JackMatthew,

Thanks for posting on the Xbox forums. We understand that you would like to recover the email address associated with your gamertag. We have a support article that provides instructions on

how to recover your email address. If this does not resolve the issue, we recommend
reaching out to Xbox Support. Be sure to let us know the results
JackMatthew!

Hello Beyers,

Thanks for coming to the forums with your issue. We understand trying to recover an older account. You would need to know the email that was associated to the gamer tag you want back. Being you only know part of the gamer tag support wouldn't be able to
assist unless you know a few different emails you have. What we suggest first try logging into Xbox.com with a few emails. You may find the account this way if able to log in with different emails. Other option is to try out the

lost account solution.

Thanks,

Brad

Good evening,

Just to make sure we are clear

1) Old email with gamer tag I want

2) Current email with gamer tag I don’t want

I want to move the gamer tag I want from the old email address to my current email address. If possible, to delete my new gamer tag I don’t want

Is the steps you mentioned still correct?

My other account has game pass im trying to use cloud but forgot the email i know the recovery and gamer tag ***PII Removed*** but they said it dont word.

EDIT: Removed personally identifiable information (PII) from post.

You would need to somehow figure out what email you used. There isnt any way to recover an account without it.

I have now managed to recover one of the accounts. I don't know why but it has excepted the email address now.

While I was at it I played with the change gamer tag option on a new account I have made and it turns out Microsoft has got my original gamer tag available to anyone who wants it. That's nice of them to let me know.

Many thanks for your input.
