Moving Minecraft to A new Microsoft Account

iTechniques173 · Sep 5, 2022

I had my account email compromised and as a result am going to have all my data hopefully transferred to a new Microsoft account. I was wondering if this also included Minecraft Java Edition data as well? The support team said It was possible but I have read elsewhere of it not being possible. Will I get to keep all of my progress in the game or start over?

As far as I know is not possible to transfer content / purchases / licenses / progress between Microsoft accounts.

If you recover the compromised account, probably the proper team is going to assign a new alias or restore the old (before the hack) but not you're not going to receive a whole new Microsoft account

I apologize but that's not possible. You can create a child account for your nephew but he'll need to start from scratch.

Sorry to say but unfortunately any kind of transfer between Microsoft accounts can't be made.

This is for security reasons

So it'd be impossible for me to move my Minecraft account to a new email?
