    Migrating account from one email address to another - Issue with Store


    Dear Community,

    I have changed the primary email address in my child's Microsoft account. After numerous tries eventually he managed to log in to Windows. However, when we tried to install a game we bought through Store it was not available. Actually it seems that we need to buy it again.
    Please advise how to overcome this issue and avoid additional spending.

    Kind regards,
    Djordje

    :)

    Hi Djordje011, I hope you're doing great out there despite the issue that you're experiencing. I am an Independent advisor and I am here to help you in regards to your concern.

    If I may ask, what is the title of the game, and is this game purchased through Microsoft Store?

    Migrating account from one email address to another - Issue with Store

    Dear Francia,

    Thanks for stepping in.

    The game is Minecraft for Windows 10 Starter Collection. The game is owned by my son.

    However, it seems we need to purchase it again. The primary email address of the Microsoft Account was changed. There was an issue with the access and family settings earlier. That was solved.

    Now the only issue after the transition is that the ownership of the game was changed.

    Kind regards,
    Djordje

    Unfortunately there is not a way to migrate games and saved data from one account to another. You can however, if the email address is not a Microsoft one (@outlook, @hotmail, @live etc) change the primary email address. If you delete a Microsoft email
    address, it will close down the email account and all access you may have to other Microsoft services

    Xbox Account Migration to New Microsoft Account

    Unfortunately it's not possible to migrate from one account to another. Your only option, as long as the email that was originally used isn't a Microsoft one (@outlook, @hotmail, @live etc) then you can change the primary email address associated with
    the account. If it's a Microsoft email address and you remove it, it would close all access to email and any other services used on that account.
