Recover/Migrate deactivated Microsoft account for Minecraft

Hello Deb_304, this is Manuela. I'm an Independent Advisor and community user like you, ready to assist with this.

Not a Microsoft employee.

I’m sorry to hear you lost access to your Microsoft account. I would like to ask, may I know what do you mean by “deactivated”? Was the account locked by Microsoft, was the account compromised, or instead you forgot the password?

In advance, I would like to let you know that no one at Microsoft can view, change the account details or send password reset links for you, this is for security policies

Hi Manuela

'Deactivated' means the email account has been deleted.

If you migrated Minecraft to your Microsoft account, and it was this account that was hacked, it will be the one you have to try to recover.

Yes, unfortunately that’s the case
If maybe the hacked account was a Microsoft account, you could try to recover it

But as the hacker stole your Minecraft and then they migrated the account to a new Microsoft account
There is no way to know (from Microsoft side) which was the account used to migrate this Minecraft account
They only have the tools to work with Microsoft accounts

I did try, but I migrated my Minecraft account to this Microsoft account, and I don't need to recover it. I need to restore Minecraft itself on my account because it's not working on my account!
