Switching my Xbox account's email.

Unfortunately this is not possible and since your email is a Microsoft email (Live, Hotmail or Outlook) you can't switch the email to another one and have the account not be connected to that email anymore, technically.

You can switch the login emails around but you CAN'T switch TO a Microsoft email when you do this (Live, Hotmail or Outlook). You can switch to another email provider but you can't switch between Microsoft emails as they're permanently connected to that
account they were created on. For example, you can't switch this account's email login to another Microsoft account because that email is attached to a Microsoft account already.

The only solution is to start over and have him create a new account and have the account that owns all the games to be set as the my home xbox account on the xbox one so that the new account can play all the games that account owns BUT the saves and any
progress will not move over and some DLC will not share, also.

Hey there Kixzoh. No you will not, but anything purchased from your now banned account, are all forfeit. This includes but is not limited to Gold Time, DLC, Games, GamerScore, Money/Microsoft Points, Reputation, Avatar items, etc.

Understood. This is very helpful.

However, I don't want to change the Microsoft account to a new email, just the Xbox account, as this Microsoft account is important to the the relative. Would there be a way to change solely the Xbox account to my email, rather than the whole Microsoft account? Thank you.

Hello Hunter C.,



Greetings!



Thank you for posting in Microsoft Community.



It sounds like you are trying to change the primary email address associated with your Xbox account. Let us check and see on what we can do to help address your concern in a timely manner.

If you are unable to add your desired email address as an alias, it may be because it is already associated with another Microsoft account. In this case, you will need to remove the email address from the other account before you can add it to your Xbox account.



Regarding your plan to delete your current account to free up the email address for your Xbox account, please note that deleting an account will permanently remove all data associated with it, including your saved games, achievements, and other account information. If you are sure you want to proceed with deleting your account, you can follow the steps outlined in this article: How to close your Microsoft account - Microsoft Support



For your reference on how to add an alias to your Microsoft account, see: Add or remove an email alias in Outlook.com - Microsoft Support



We look forward to your response. Kindly let us know, if there is any misunderstanding or clarifications of our description by sending us a reply.

Hello Hunter C.,

Thank you for coming back with the thread.

Your Microsoft account is the same as your Xbox account. Changing your Xbox account will affect your Microsoft account and vice versa. And one thing to note that if game licenses are already tied up to an account, it cannot be transferred to another or different Microsoft account.

Thank you for your understanding.

Sincerely,
