My son's xbox account is linked to my microsoft account. How do I seperate?

The Xbox account and the Microsoft account are practically the same. They can not be seperated. The only way to have things seperate, is for one of you to start over with a new account.

Hi AndrewSchaad1! My name is Ricardo an independent advisor ready to help you with this situation!

To separate the account you will need to change the account alias, but that will erase the email currently linked to the account, to do this you need to follow this steps

How do i link my ea account to my xbox account two seperate emails

When I bought my minor son his first Xbox, I added the Xbox to my account and had my son sign in there to use it. He is now an adult and I want him to set up his own Microsoft account and move his Xbox to his own account. How do we do this??.

You can easily havr him create his own account and log into his xbox.

He will lose access to his saved games and anything linked to your account. They cannot be transferred to another Microsoft account, nor can his gamertag.

He would essentially be starting fresh on his account.

Thank you for posting in Microsoft Community



I do understand the urgency of you wanting to find other ways for this issue of yours in regards with Xbox account to your Microsoft account that is asking for a code. We are very glad to help you out to find some of the best possible options and troubleshooting's that we can provide for you.

We just want to set your proper expectations that this is like the first time that you have setup your account on a new Xbox Console or from a factory reset. And for that, it will show a picture of a QR code and as well as the code that you have mentioned as well. So for that, we will find some possible options that we can apply for it to be removed or unable to be seen.

For this, we will just try to skip that prompt on your end and it will just show only once. No worries, it will not give any issues on the near future and as well as if you will skip that, you can just as well go to your Xbox Console Settings and set it up there as well.

For this what you need to do in order to skip it is that you can just click the Home Button on your Xbox controller or the 3 horizontal lines so that you will be routed on your Xbox Home Menu, and from there the prompt will be removed and since it will only show up once it will not show up again.



Thank you for reaching out and sharing your issue. I hope all of this information's are helpful. We look forward on your response.
