How to password protect your Xbox LIVE profile

Xbox LIVE password overview

It is possible to download your Xbox LIVE profile to several different consoles. You may need to do this if you have more than one Xbox 360 console, or you want to play games at a friend's house. In such a situation, you may want to password protect your Xbox LIVE account so that no one else can sign in using your profile.

Set the console to remember your password

Once you have downloaded your Xbox LIVE profile to a console, you will be asked if you want the console to remember your password. The Remember Password option is usually off by default. This means that you will be asked for your Microsoft account password every time you sign into Xbox LIVE.

If you don't want to be asked for your Microsoft account password every time you sign into Xbox LIVE, select the Remember Password option.

Change the password protection on your profile

You are required to set the Remember Password option after you download your Xbox LIVE profile. However, you can change the password protection on your Xbox LIVE profile any time.

If you don't need a password to sign in:

Sign into your Xbox LIVE profile. After you have entered your Microsoft account password, select the Remember Password option.

If you choose the Remember Password option, you will not be asked for your Microsoft account password the next time you sign into your Xbox LIVE profile.

If you need a password to sign in:

You can restrict access to your Xbox LIVE profile on any console using your Microsoft account password.

Steps to follow

1) Sign in using your Xbox LIVE gamertag.

2) Under Settings, select Account and then Account Security

3) Choose the option for Password at Sign In.

4) Select Require Password Here

You will be asked for your Microsoft account password the next time you sign into your Xbox LIVE profile.

How to password protect your Xbox LIVE profile remotely

If you downloaded your Xbox LIVE profile to another console and it is not password protected, or someone has compromised your password, you can change the password from a remote location so that no one else can access your profile.

Change your Microsoft account

1) Sign into accounts.live.com using your Microsoft account.

2) Go to Account Information and, next to Password, click Change.

You can also use your console to change your Microsoft account password.

Note: If the Xbox LIVE profile you downloaded does not require a password to sign in (You selected the Remember Password option), you will not be able to restrict someone from signing into your Xbox profile even if you change your Microsoft account password.

You can remove your Microsoft account password so that other people cannot access your Xbox profile on other consoles. This will ensure that a password is required before signing into your Xbox profile.

Remotely set a profile password from a computer:

1) Sign into your Xbox LIVE account.

2) Under Settings, select Account, and then Account Security

3) Choose the option for Password at Sign In.

4) Select On All Other Consoles.

Once you have done this, a password will be required to sign into your Xbox LIVE profile on all other consoles.

Hi there,

which password exactly are you referring too? Is it the Passcode or the actual Microsoft Account password (the same as you use on xbox.com etc) ?

If it's the passcode then entering it wrongly a few times will redirect to entering the actual Microsoft Account Password.

If it is the Microsoft Account Password you want to change you can do so via

Hey LitEmUpBAL27,

If you forgot your Microsoft Account Password, please visit this website: Reset your password and follow the on screen step-by-step prompts to change your password.

If you forgot your Family Passcode, you will need to contact Xbox customer support for help resetting this passcode. (Contact them at support.xbox.com/contact-us or 1-800-4MY-XBOX for US and Canada). They will verify you own the account and can help resetting
the Family Passcode.

And Finally, if you forgot your profile lock passcode, the easiest way to fix this is to remove your profile from the Xbox One and redownload it using your login username and password.

I hopes this helps! Let us know if you are still having problems and we will gladly dig deeper to find a solution.

Reset or recover your lost Microsoft account password

If you know the email address that you used to set up your Microsoft account, you can skip this tutorial and reset your password now:

Go to Reset your password and enter your email address.
Tell us where you’d like us to send a security code (email or phone number).
Once you receive your security code, you’ll be prompted to choose a new password and enter it twice. Passwords should be at least 8 characters long and should contain a mix of upper and lowercase letters, numbers, and symbols.

Note You must have your Microsoft account email address to reset your password. If you’ve forgotten this email address, use the Lost
Account Solution to recover it before you reset your password.

You can also reset your password on the Xbox Oneor Xbox 360 console (see below).
If you’re unable to access any of the contact methods associated with your account (and thus unable to receive the security code required to reset your password), see Recover
your Microsoft account online below.

Hello SwathedSword75! Perhaps I'm confused, you mention you reset your Hotmail password? Are you simply trying to add your WLID email to your phone or are you trying to add your XBL account? As the second would require a different password, and not the one
that would be reset by resetting your Hotmail password. Are you resetting your password at
account.live.com/ResetPassword.aspx? Let us know!
