    I know this has been asked before, but I'm hoping something has changed recently.

    I would like my son's Xbox account to be under his email so I can use the family restrictions and security. It's his Xbox, so his account, but I use my email because I'm paying for it and so I can control it..... but I can't control it because it's the primary
    account.

    :)

    There's nothing can be done because you can't deage an account. I assume for security reasons. You can make him a child account and set up a family so he can have access to the games but yeah he'll have to start over on saves.

    Transferring my son's Xbox games etc. from my primary email to his own email, so I can add restrictions

    Thank you, but unfortunately it doesn't help. I've already added his email, but it's no use because all his games and achievements are on my email, which I can't restrict. It's the loss of data that is important.

    Thank you for the suggestion. Unfortunately, I doubt he'll want to lose all the progress in his other games.

    This is a ridiculous situation. There must be thousands of us who want to make this simple change to our accounts. It should be an easy switch. Wake up Microsoft.

    Transferring my son's Xbox games etc. from my primary email to his own email, so I can add restrictions

    Hi there,

    I'm afraid it's not possible to transfer games (and content) from one Xbox Live Account to another Xbox Live account.

    An alternate option could be this:

    - Setup a new account for your son and add him to the family, so your account can control your sons account via family restrictions.

    - Set your sons Console as your accounts Home console, this will result in your sons account being able to play the games (and use subscriptions) purchased via your account

    - Any game progress will be unavailable for your son's account. Accept for a few exceptions like with Fortnite, since any progress/content is linked to an Epic account and an Epic account can be moved and reconnected to a different Xbox Live account.

    If you have any other questions feel free to ask
