    The option to change my Minecraft username won't show. How can I change it?


    I have been trying to change my Minecraft username for the past hour, when I realized that the option to do so isn't there in my Minecraft.net profile settings! I changed my gamertag, which I wanted to do, but it had no effect on the username in-game. How do I change my minecraft username?

    :)

    This somewhat helped. I also signed in my Microsoft account instead of Mojang account. Thank you for the help!

    Hi and thanks for reaching Microsoft Xbox gamer's community. My name is Josef.

    I'm an Independent Advisor and a Microsoft Xbox user like you.

    Hope you're doing great today Thalius

    Is this for Java Edition?

    Did you tried opening Minecraft profile page on incognito mode?

    https://www.minecraft.net/en-us/profile

    Once there Navigate to My Games and select the Minecraft: Java Edition dropdown box and there you should be able to change your username

    If you're not able to see the option to change Java Edition Minecraft username you may need to contact Mojang support for this one

    If you're referring to Bedrock edition, changing gamertag do the trick, but sometimes can take up to 72 hours to be reflected the change everywhere

    Minecraft Account hacked and username changed

    I'm Samy an independent advisor. Welcome to the community. How are you?

    Can I change my username?

    Users who have a Mojang account or a Microsoft account can change their username for free at www.minecraft.net/en-us/profile. Click Change next to your profile name.

    If you have an older account and you sign in with your username, you need to migrate to a Mojang account before you can change your username. Minecraft support is unable to assist with changing usernames as system is set up to be self-service.

    How often can I change my username?

    You can change your username once every 30 days. When you change your username, your previous name is saved for 37 days. This gives you an additional week to change back if you change your mind before your previous username becomes available to anyone else.

    Minecraft Java Account got hacked and username is not legit if i join on a server i will get banned

    Hi there, I appreciate your response clarifying the situation.

    I would like to confirm. Is only the Minecraft username the one the hacker changed it?

    You can try to revert this by changing the username here:
    https://www.minecraft.net/en-us/msaprofile

    Otherwise, if that’s not an option for you, I strongly recommend reaching out to Minecraft support and review with them the options you may have regarding reverting this change or setting a new username.
