    Transfer games and online account to another Microsoft account.


    My son has been using my Microsoft account on his Xbox, so his online purchases and accounts are on my account, he now has his own Microsoft account and i'd like my account back. Can anyone tell me if it is possible to transfer the online games and the
    online membership to his account

    :)

    Transfer games and online account to another Microsoft account.

    Hello Andrew,

    Thanks for reaching out to the forums. We see you have question on transferring data. Unfortunately, you are unable to transfer games, data, etc. from one account to another. You can however set up

    home console
    on your profile so your son is able to access all the games on his new profile. Only downside he will need to start over on the games.

    Thanks,

    Brad

    Transfer online games to another microsoft account

    Hi,

    there is no way to transfer digital licences once bought but you can share those games to the son's account by signing in to the account with the games and then enable my home xbox.

    How to enable; https://support.xbox.com/en-GB/games/game-setup/my-home-xbox

    Once enabled your son can enjoy those games on his account.

    Nothing can be transferred between accounts. If your husband has the console set as his Home console, your son will be able to access the the games on his account.

    As long as your sons console remains as your home console then he should still be able to play the games you have installed. If you want to leave your account on this console then it is possible to change the setting so that it will ask for your password
    when your profile is used, additionally you can also set up two step verification to help further secure your account and prevent purchases being made.
