So today I try to change my minecraft email to my main account so I go into youtube to find a way to change it. I start by going to https://account.microsoft.com/security -> Login to my *** Die E-Mail-Adresse wurde aus Datenschutzgründen entfernt. *** Add a new login or verification method and add my *** Die E-Mail-Adresse wurde aus Datenschutzgründen entfernt. *** and confirm it. and proceed to delete the old one after that https://account.microsoft.com/profile -> edit login info and add email *** Die E-Mail-Adresse wurde aus Datenschutzgründen entfernt. *** and it said that it have been taken or used something like that so I change my mind and use my *** Die E-Mail-Adresse wurde aus Datenschutzgründen entfernt. *** and it seem to sync with *** Die E-Mail-Adresse wurde aus Datenschutzgründen entfernt. *** and delete the *** Die E-Mail-Adresse wurde aus Datenschutzgründen entfernt. *** after that I proceed to login to my minecraft to see if it work and as you can guess IT NOT. I start to panic add back login *** Die E-Mail-Adresse wurde aus Datenschutzgründen entfernt. *** info and try to login to minecrat website and it link with microsoft not email so I appear back into the same account that don't have minecraft. I can't even login using my *** Die E-Mail-Adresse wurde aus Datenschutzgründen entfernt. *** because it appear as *** Die E-Mail-Adresse wurde aus Datenschutzgründen entfernt. ***.

It feel like I just overwrite the minecraft account with the example account which dont have minecraft or my minecraft microsoft account dont have any email connect to it anymore because when add school email it appear as my example email and so the minecraft microsoft account just gone.

sorry for bad english it my second language.

so I wonder are there any way to undo this mistake and get my account back.

But i can sing-in, it just shows my xbox game pass minecraft account. But when i logged in with the my email before i changed my primary email to a different one, i couldn't log in, and when i tried to change the password thinking i forgot my password, i didn't recieve a change password email.

And when i tried to login through microsoft in the minecraft.net, it logged in to an account with a similar nickname of my previous account, but it got added random numbers at the end, and when i checked if i have minecraft i didn't have it.

As you mentioned that you suspect that this gamertag is linked to one of your old email accounts. I will suggest login to your old email account and change the email address of that one with your new email address as described here https://support.microsoft.com/en-au/help/12407/microsoft-account-change-email-phone-number

Or you can delete or change your gamertag by accessing your old email account first.

I deleted the Microsoft account through the profile menu on the Microsoft website after login. Currently using my old account email (the one I deleted) there is a warning that it does not exist
