    If I were to buy a new console and made my new personal Gmail my primary email, will I still have access to games I bought when I sign into the new console?

    If I change my email address, will the games I bought still be accessable if I were to buy a new console?

    Hi, I hope you're doing great out there. I am an Independent advisor and I am here to help you in regard to your concern.

    I would like to clarify, will you be changing the primary email alias of your current Microsoft account? If yes, then you’ll still have your games because the license for digital games are linked to our Microsoft account itself.

    According to Xbox Support:

    “Concerned about your licences? Don’t worry—if you change your account alias, or remove an alias and then add a new one, all licences linked to your Microsoft account will remain with your account.”

    2 Gamertags, 1 Live ID

    No news from security department yet, so I changed my email address via Live.com. Oops. The console still has the old email address and no longer recognizes the password. I still have access to my games and such... but for how long?

    One LIVE account, two gamertags, three hours on the phone, four-um might have a solution?

    address on the console.

    Yep, looks like only the security department can untangle this one.

    Email was changed without notice

    I still remember buying games that were on sale thru the xbox store. I bought a couple of them and got the confirmation for the games I bought. Didn't get no other email.

    Why cant i still not change my email address?

    Hello

    How are you trying to change the email address? You can only change the primary email address associated with the account. You will need to add the new one first as a secondary account. Then switch it to the primary one.
