Unlink Xbox and Microsoft accounts

okay so in need of some help here.

okay so I've had a basic xbox account without live for a while now playing games and getting achievements on it, earlier me and friends figured out you could join minecraft on the xbox whit a windows 10 copy as long as you had xbox live were like sure why
not means we don't have to split screen any more. So i go log into my separate Microsoft account that has been used for windows and Skype previously. I go to link this account to my xbox one using the upgrade to xbox live function on the xbox360 and it says
i cant connect them as there is already a account tied with my Microsoft account. I go to download the profile and it is a basic randomly generated one with a name like Player177....and such. so now ive got a worthless account tied to my microsoft account
and my actual xbox account just sitting there not able to be used as i want to now. I had changed the name and personalised this xbox live account before i i decided that i do not want to have to start again from scratch with my gamerscore and everything.

So to cut a long story short i want the account tied to my Microsoft account deleting so i can add my ACTUAL account to it not some randomly generated account that Microsoft decided to do without even asking if i wanted one.

Skype no possibility to log in

It sounds like there's some kind of confusion between Skype accounts and Microsoft accounts. Sign in to Skype on the web with to unlink your accounts, and then you can re-launch Skype on Xbox One to link the Skype account you want to the Microsoft account
that you use on your Xbox.

(For more information about unlinking accounts, see

Is there a way of unlinking my XBOX account from my Microsoft account?

But there's no way to unlink my XBOX account from a Microsoft account without creating a new Microsoft account?

 

Hey there BlackRosee33,

To clarify, the Windows 10 version of Minecraft and the Xbox One version are not cross platform compatible, meaning that you wouldn't be able to join a friend or family member using the other version. The Windows 10 version (not java) and the Minecraft Pocket
Edition however are able to be played with each other as long as you meet the requirements listed on the FAQ page

HERE.

To address the issue with unlinking an account though, this isn't possible as simply as clicking a button, because that Microsoft Account will no longer have an email address associated with it. What you'll need to do is change the email on the account to
something else, and then change the email address on the other account you wish to have associated with the email.
