minecraft account stolen during migration; how do i get it back?

Coffee e · May 14, 2023

During the account migrations a while back, my Minecraft account used a password only an estranged family member knew; when I asked what the password was, he completed the migration, putting the 9-year-old account on his Microsoft account, and hasn't contacted me since.

This email is where the account was meant to go. How do I change the email that the Minecraft account is linked to?

Hi Coffee, this is Manuela!. I'm an Independent Advisor and community user like you willing to assist with this

I'm sorry to hear your Minecraft account was migrated to an incorrect Microsoft account. This is a delicate process and we need to make sure to choose the correct account, because once the migration progress starts there is no way to cancel it or change the account used.

I recommend you to reach this family member and make an agreement.

Hi Lucas,

So the email that used to be used to log into minecraft has a microsoft account. When I log in to the microsoft account specifically, I'm not sure if the account has been migrated. Like I said, I can't figure out how to log into an account to download minecraft.

Honestly, maybe the account was migrated but to a stolen microsoft account? If that was the case, how would I get my game back?

Hello FireBird1170,

Thank you for contacting the Xbox Support forums. I understand there was an error during the account migration process between your Minecraft account and Microsoft account. With migration errors, it is common for the game client not to recognize your purchased license. This can be resolved once the migration error is found.

To best assist, please view How to Migrate a Legacy Minecraft Account to a Microsoft Account to ensure no steps were left out during the migration process. If you have already followed through with the full process and are still being met with an error, please open a ticket with the Minecraft Support Team. You may do so by visiting: Minecraft Support - Contact Us.

Thank you,

-Tali

No, I know that. The Microsoft account is the problem, it thinks I don’t have Minecraft and is making me buy it again. I want to know how to reverse the migration and get my Mojang account back. Is there any way at all for me to get Minecraft back, or do I have to buy it again?
