I’m trying to change/recover my child’s outlook/minecraft account and there’s not enough...

Hello Frederick R, My name is David. I am an independent advisor, happy to help you today.

I'm sorry to hear that your Outlook account has been stolen and that you have lost access to your Minecraft account. Here are some steps you can follow to try to recover your Minecraft account:

Try to recover your Outlook account Although you mention that you don't care about email, it is important to try to recover your Outlook account since it is linked to your Minecraft account. Follow Outlook account recovery procedures, such as resetting your password or using the account recovery option. If you can recover your Outlook account, you can also recover access to your Minecraft account.

Best regards.

Hello, my name is Tadeu, I am an Independent Consultant and a member of the Microsoft Xbox community, just like you.

I apologize for the issue you are experiencing.

I am here to help.

I hope everything is going well and thank you for contacting me.

I am very sorry about what happened to your account and I completely understand your frustration. Unfortunately, Microsoft support and Customer Service are simply indicating that the only procedure or way for a user to recover an account is to follow the methods indicated in the link below.

Here’s what you need to do:

Step 1: Use Microsoft’s account recovery form

Go to:

https://account.live.com/acsr

Enter the original email address or phone number associated with your account (even if it’s changed)

Provide an alternate email address where Microsoft can contact you

Answer as many questions as you can — use accurate information like:

Old passwords you’ve used

Services you’ve used (Xbox, Outlook, Skype)

Serial number for your Xbox console (if you know it)

Billing details (if you’ve purchased anything in the past)

Tip: Try submitting the form from a device or location you’ve used before — this helps Microsoft verify that it’s really you.

Step 2: Watch your alternate email for updates

Once you submit the form, Microsoft will review your request and usually respond within 24 hours.

If your request is approved, you will receive instructions on how to reset your password and recover your account. If your request is denied, you can try again — just double-check your answers and include as many details as possible.

Step 3: Add extra protection (after recovery)

If you recover your account, make sure to:

Add 2-step verification

Set up a recovery email and phone number

Enable sign-in alerts at:

https://account.microsoft.com/security

Please contact me if you need further assistance. I look forward to hearing from you.

Unfortunately, there is no other way to do this, as no agent can provide any information on this matter.

Please note that this is a public forum only. I will respond as soon as possible, and apologize in advance for any delay in responding. I am just a user trying to provide information and knowledge that may be useful to others. I am not a Microsoft employee.

Best regards Tadeu

I’m connected to Microsoft on Minecraft but I’m trying to change to my other Microsoft account because I chose the wrong one

For most people, in most regions

Sign in to Your info on the Microsoft account website.Select Edit your personal info.Change your birthdate, and select Save.
For child accounts, in some regions
If the birthdate on a Microsoft account says that it belongs to a child, there are different steps to take in regions such as the United States of America and the Republic of Korea, and other regions that regulate what children can do online.
I'm a parent, trying to change my child's birthdate

Using the parent's Microsoft account, sign in to your Family page on the Microsoft account website.Select Manage my child's profile info.For the child’s account that you want to change, select Edit this child's personal info and then follow the instructions.
I’m an adult, but my account thinks I’m a child
To change your own account from a child account to a full account, you need to prove that you're an adult. You have two options:

Show all
Option 1: Provide a valid U.S. credit card number
Option 2: Send us proof of age

Might I be able to change it a different way

How can I change the birthdate from child to adult?

Unfortunately you can not change the birthday from a child to an adult, it must age into one. My best bet would try to recover the account waitedgoblin3 if possible, i know you don't know what account it is but you can at least try to do so.
