    Verification code sent to different email, not to the email I used for login


    I have made a different microsoft account where I used for adding my bought minecraft code.
    I used a different email provider called "Tutamail" for the email I used, and I added my gmail account as an alternative for that account.

    I deleted the "Tutamail account" and I tried changing the security options after that, but it asked a code from that Tutamail I have which I had deleted recently.

    Then every time I try to login with the gmail that I used as an alternative, it won't send that code to the gmail account.

    I've also tried the password recovery option but it doesn't verify me as the owner of that account.
    Could you please help me about this issue?

    :)

    Why wont the verification codes send?

    Hi Plex,

    Thank you for posting in Microsoft Xbox Community. I'm sorry to hear that you're having issues logging in to Minecraft. I understand that you don't receive the security code that's being sent to you. Are you referring to a mobile or email?

    If email, please check your junk email folder for a message from a Microsoft account, and use the code sent to you. Valid verification codes come from an @accountprotection.microsoft.com email address.

    Mark @accountprotection.microsoft.com as a trusted sender to receive your verification code in your inbox.

    Does your alternate email address end in @outlook.com, @hotmail.com, @live.com, or @msn.com?

    If so, you're using one Microsoft account to verify another Microsoft account. This can make it tricky to keep track of which one you're signed in to. When you sign in to the second account (to get the code sent to that email), most browsers automatically sign you out of the first account (the one that's actually requesting the code).

    To get your verification code:

    Using a browser in privacy mode, sign in with the first account. This lets you stay signed in to both accounts at the same time.

    When you're prompted to enter the verification code that was sent to your alternate email address, don't close the browser window.

    Open a new window in privacy mode. Ctrl + Shift + P is the shortcut for InPrivate Browsing in Microsoft Edge and Internet Explorer. If you're using a different browser, check that browser's help for info about privacy mode.

    In the new window, sign in to your alternate email account and look for the message from the Microsoft account team. Copy or write down the verification code from the message.

    Return to the window that is asking you for the verification code. Enter the code and follow the instructions.

    Regards,

    Alvaro
