    Microsoft Account on Nintendo Switch


    My son and I have not been able to sign into our Microsoft accounts through Minecraft for the Nintendo Switch. It was working in January and February, and now hasn't been working for about two months. I saw an older thread with people discussing this issue - how do we fix it?

    We have repeatedly gone to remoteconnect in a browser on a different device and put in the codes provided on the Switch - no luck. The browser tells us that we're all set, but we still can't sign in on the Switch.

    Help?

    :)

    I need help. I'm trying to connect to my switch with my Microsoft account but when ever I finish filling it out it takes me to an Xbox screen, asking me to sign in. I don't have Xbox. I have ps4

    Hello,

    Thank you for posting in Microsoft Community.

    We understand that you're having trouble connecting your Microsoft account to your Nintendo Switch. It sounds like you may have accidentally clicked on the Xbox sign-in page instead of the Nintendo Switch sign-in page.



    To connect your Microsoft account to your Nintendo Switch, please follow these steps:



    1. On your Nintendo Switch, go to System Settings > Users > Add User.

    2. Create a new user account and select "Sign in using a Microsoft account."

    3. Follow the prompts to sign in to your Microsoft account and link it to your Nintendo Switch.



    If you continue to have trouble, please let me know and I'll do my best to assist you further.

    Sincerely,

    How do I unlink a random Nintendo Switch from my Microsoft account

    Recently my account was compromised and connected to a random nintendo switch. Now I have no clue as to how to unlink the nintendo switch from my account as the only forums I've seen about this situation if you have access to the nintendo switch. I dont have access to the switch so how do I unlink the account from my Microsoft one?
    The problem with unlinking this is gonna be the fact that its your Microsoft account is linked to the switch account and not the other way around.

    The linking process starts on Nintendo's end. Therefore unlinking it would also have to be done from Nintendo's end.

    Hi Jose,

    Thanks for coming to the forums. You will need to reach out to
    Mojang support     on this issue. We can help with your Microsoft account, unfortunately not the Minecraft account.

    Thanks,

    Brad
