    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?

    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? Can't change the WLID
    address on the console.

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

    Account Compromised! Microsoft has no resources for me to get it back?

    I do not know what email address the hackers have changed the new email to. Can I not provide the email address that the account has been registered to for the past 10 years, and they can track the history to see all the changes were made today?

    They logged into my account and changed the email to something they created. I have access to my regular email that the account was created on, and has been linked to for a decade.

    Are you saying I need to know the email that the hackers changed it to?

    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.
