    Issues with Microsoft Accounts used with Xbox


    My Xbox account is registered with my gaming email. My computer Microsoft account was registered to my professional email. I am trying to log into the Xbox app on my computer.

    When I try, it automatically tries to log in with the computer account, which then prompts me to create an Xbox account. There is no option anywhere to sign in with a different email, and I really don't want to have to register an extra Xbox account.

    I also do not want to use my professional email for gaming, or sign into my computer with my gaming email. It is no longer possible to combine the accounts, apparently.

    :)

    Issues with Microsoft Accounts used with Xbox

    Hello, how are you? My name is Mateus. I'm an Independent Advisor and I'll be glad to help you today.

    First, welcome to the Xbox community. Strangely, when logging in with your account on the Xbox app, you would see in the upper right corner your account avatar when clicking on it was to have the option to log out, with that you would be able to log in your account preference to the app, if it is not showing for you, try the solutions below, please.

    Solution 1:

    Search the term WSRESET in the Windows search bar

    Run the command as administrator

    Wait for the window to open to close automatically

    Restart your PC

    Solution 2:

    Uninstall the Xbox app

    Restart your PC

    And see if you can log in to your preferred account

    Solution 3:

    Log your preferred Microsoft Store account

    And see if the account in the Xbox app changes.

    *Thank you in advance for contacting, I hope this can help you.

    Microsoft Account Issue with Xbox

    Following the directions from the page it took me to, my Gamertag was not in the Privacy settings in the account that added me.

    Since I was removed and the family group deleted, should they add me back and change my permissions? Would this work?

    Microsoft Account Issue with Xbox

    Greetings,

    I have a Microsoft account that I use on my Xbox. However, I cannot manage my Xbox account because it always takes me to this
    page
    when I try to go to
    account.xbox.com
    to manage my account.

    It seems to me that it thinks my account is a child’s account, which it was. On accident, someone added me to a family group as a child instead of an adult. The family group has since then been deleted. My account is not a child’s account but for some reason
    account.xbox.com thinks it is. Can anyone help me to get mt account back to an adult account?
    Hi there. Have you tried contacting the person who added you to the family group as the privacy settings can now only be changed from within that account. Hope you get this sorted.
