Unlink deleted Microsoft account from PSN

Icrawled · Mar 18, 2023

I deleted my microsoft account months ago, this account was originally linked to my PSN ID to play minecraft. I am now trying to login to minecraft on my playstation from a new microsoft account that I just created and minecraft is failing to login because my PSN account is already connected, how do I fix this? I assumed after deleting my microsoft account that this would be unlinked from my PSN account.

If you linked this deleted gmail account (that was your Microsoft account) to your PSN account, it cannot be unlinked.

If you recover this gmail account you can actually unlink it from your PSN account, but once you link a Microsoft account to a PSN account, you cannot link any other Microsoft account to it. Only the original one can be linked again.

I'm sorry about that and I hope you understand.

That is a complete lie. The linking happens on Microsoft's servers - Sony has nothing to do with it.

The problem is that neither Minecraft support, Xbox support, or Windows support teams have access to that database. That's why they keep pointing fingers at each other.

Hi I have done lots of reading today on this issue, what I can't wrap my head around is how this Microsoft account is still linked to my PSN when it has been deleted and doesn't exist anymore?

I understand but it doesn't work like that. The game itself has its own account system. We don't know for certain how it really works back-end. The Minecraft support team should be able to give you an answer and assist you on this matter because they have all the resources and tools to check your account in game.

I have seen others with a somewhat similar problem with disconnecting their account have it fixed, so I’d assume there is a way to fix this
