Unwanted game save sync from sons Xbox account to my Microsoft store PC account

Since it's just one game please double check that there isn't an account conflict on the game in question via the website, I'll have to quickly see if there is a way to change email addresses on the forza side of things though.

Edit:

Here is a link to forza support to see if they can help you further on this matter https://support.forzamotorsport.net/hc/en-us/categories/360000558393-Forza-Horizon-4 Since
it requires log in ect I cannot access that but they might be able to assist you with.

Thanks again I will check it out.

That's some solid advice. However my sons xbox account is setup via his mums email address and my Microsoft account is set up from my email address. So unfortunately it's not an email conflict.

Thanks for the reply

Hi there Jacefafaceis

This sounds like the account is set to your email address. I suggest changing your password and asking your son to change the email address linked to there gamertag . https://support.xbox.com/en-US/my-a...nt/change-email-sign-in-for-microsoft-account Try

Thank you for your reply.

To answer your question, my son has a separate user there on the PC.

I've actually already done what you suggested:

While logged in to the PC with my son's user, I signed-in with my account on the Microsoft store app. I downloaded the desired games and then signed in with my son's account. This allowed my son to play the games.

However, this does not solve the problem. Your suggestion allows my son to play the games I purchased, but severely compromises MY microsoft account.

After I've signed in to the microsoft store using my account, even if I sign-in again using my son's account...

1. My son can always switch back to my account on the Microsoft store app. He will not be required to enter my password or PIN (which he does not know of course) - he will only be asked to enter his own PIN (which is very weird). This means my son could gain access to my microsoft store account and purchase more games and apps without requiring my approval.

2. What is even worse, is that when I logged in to the microsoft store using my account... Then MY microsoft account was added to the list of my son's accounts. That is, when my son is logged on to the PC, under settings-->accounts-->Email & accounts, under "Accounts used by other apps", I could see my account listed.

This allowed my son to access any app or website that uses my microsoft account. For example, on the Edge browser, my son could now log in to my account and see my bookmarks and history.

So I needed to remove my account from "accounts used by other apps" - which caused the games to stop working again on his account...

There has to be a legitimate way to share the game without compromising the parent's Microsoft account!
