Transferring existing profile data to new profile

MatthewSchaub · Feb 1, 2019

My 10 year old son has been using my profile login credentials for playing Fortnite. He's accumulated many skins and other benefits through my profile and i created or added a new profile for him under our family plan. How do i transfer his skins over
to the new profile? Thanks.

Hello MatthewSchaub.

Unfortunately Fortnite skins are account locked. These are individual rewards or purchases that bind to the account they're unlocked on. You're not able to transfer fortnite skins between profiles.

Hi, it's not possible to transfer anything (including skins, games, add-ons) to another profile.

You can't transfer data between accounts but you can change the email associated with the account. Which would free yours up again.

Unfortunately, it's not possible to directly link an existing offline Xbox 360 profile to a new or existing Xbox Live account used with a different profile. There are limitations around merging accounts or transferring save data between them.

However, there are still a couple of options you can explore:

Create a New Live Profile for the Offline Profile:

Sign out of your current Live account on the Xbox 360.

Sign in to the offline profile you want to connect to Live.

Go to Settings > Profile > Join Xbox Live.
Create a new Microsoft account (email and password) or use a different existing account not associated with any other Xbox Live profiles.

This will create a new online profile for your old offline profile, but your achievements, save data, and progress won't be transferred.

Transfer Save Data (Limited Compatibility):

This won't link the profiles, but it can salvage some progress.

Check if the game you played offline supports Xbox Live storage.

Certain games allow uploading save data from an offline profile to the cloud if you connect to Live with a new profile.

Once uploaded, you can access the save data from your new online profile.

However, this depends on individual game functionality and might not be available for all games.

I hope this helps! Don't hesitate to ask if you have any further questions or need additional clarification.
