I would like to unlink a prior microsoft that i lost access to from my psn please help!

Hi there! This is Ronnie, an independent advisor.

Nice to meet you and I hope you are having a great day!

I understand you need help unlinking a PSN account from your Xbox accout.

Just a heads up that unlinking this would really require you to have access to your PSN account because that is where you also need to unlink it from your Xbox account.

There is no option from the Xbox account to unlink the PSN account unfortunately because this was linked through PSN in the first place. You would need to recover the PSN account in order for you to do that.

Hey there! So I was hopeful that this would solve my problem but unfortunately it did not. I tried to unlink like it said in the form that you COPIED AND PASTED, but to no luck. If someone can reply with how to unlink a ps account, i didnt recently link
this account it must have been from when i was in middle school/ highschool on an account I no longer use. How do I unlink my minecraft/ microsoft email from a psn account I no loner use?

Hi there,

there is a different forum article in regards to unlinking accounts for Minecraft here:

A few posts into it there is somebody who says they were able to unlink it and specified the steps.

Please let us know if it helped you too

Hi Jen, 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.

You can only link one PSN account to one Microsfot account, if you disconnect it, you won't be able to link another PSN account to it.

To unlink it, access this website:

https://playstation.com/acct/management/

Click on Linked Services

Select Microsoft > Unlink.

I hope this helps.

Hi there! This is Virginia O.

I understand that you are experiencing issues logging in your Microsoft account to your PS.

I apologize for the inconvenienced this has caused you. I will do my best to help you.

It is possible that your Microsoft account is already linked to a PlayStation Network (PSN) account that you’re unaware of.

To give you a heads up, once a Microsoft account is linked to a PSN account, it cannot be linked to another PSN account, even if unlinked.

Here are the steps that we can perform:

Please log in to your Microsoft account and check if there’s any record of it being linked to a PSN account. You can do this under Settings > Account > Linked Accounts.

And if you have access to the PSN account it’s linked to, you can unlink it. In the game (e.g., Minecraft), go to Settings > Profile > Unlink Microsoft Account.

NOTE: Keep in mind that unlinking doesn’t allow you to link it to a new PSN account.

If you’re unsure which PSN account your Microsoft account is linked to, I am encouraging you to reach out to PlayStation Support: https://www.playstation.com/en-us/support/.

Mention to them that you needed help in figuring out what is the account linked to your PS account. They should be able to help you because they are trained to fix in-game issues like this.
