    I misunderstood the new gamer tag naming scheme


    When I applied my name change I thought they switched to a system similar to battle.net and discord where everyone has an identifying number to their name. I didn’t realize it was because my name was taken. I’m okay with paying for the extra change, but
    it wasn’t entirely clear to me the first time around.

    :)

    Yes...I get that image...and have tried that. But, it is not letting me change my gamer name to my old name....

    I appreciate all your help...but, I think part of the problem is with the set up that Best Buy did.....

    I think I will just wait a few days...give my brain a rest.....and try again...

    Thanks for all your assistance.

    Non-use....is not the problem. I play daily.

    However....it doesn't matter.....I have tried everything that has been suggested.....so, like I said, I give up...and will start over.

    Again....thanks for all the input and suggestions.

    When I picked up computer......I had Best Buy do the set up.

    So....when we were setting up Microsoft stuff...I could not remember my password...so I had to set up a new account/password.....I think that is the problem.....because I can't access Microsoft on the new laptop unless I use the new info. It won't recognize
    my old info.
