Perhaps you’re using an old email and want to leave it behind. It may have a name that you wouldn’t say out loud, or it may be currently unnecessary. Maybe, you want to organize all your accounts on a single address, making it easier to remember passwords and accounts. In this article, we’re teaching you how to change the email address you registered on your Xbox account.
Can You Change Email Address on Xbox?
You can change your Xbox Live account email by accessing your Microsoft account details. The two services are connected as one, as Xbox doesn’t have its own website. For that reason, you need to access your old email. There’re no restrictions to changing your email on Xbox other than accessing your current email. If you forgot the password, you’d have to solve the issue with your email provider (Microsoft, Google, Yahoo, or others). Also, unlike changing your account name, you can change your email address as often as you want. As we said, ensure that you can access the old email. At the very least, ensure that you know the password for your Xbox account.
How to Change Email Address on Xbox?
You can change the email address of your Xbox Live account from Microsoft’s page, rather than the console. Here’re the steps: You can do these steps as many times as you want, there’re no limitations. You can add emails and remove others or have various emails. For example, if you add various emails, you’ll have multiple ways to access your account. For that feature to work, though, you need to enable the option I discuss above. Also, none of these changes will change your Gamertag or your gaming picture. Also, because you perform the change of Microsoft’s page, the change will affect all of your Microsoft services. Lastly, keep in mind that your Xbox Live account, as well as Game Pass services, co-exists with Microsoft offerings such as Office 360 on the same web page, address, and billing details.
Additional Security Details
There’re additional security options you can enable after you change the email. In particular, if you have various emails on the account, you can enable which can work to access the account. Clicking “Save” takes you back to the management page. Unless you have other emails to add, you’re probably done with the tutorial by now.
