Please Don't Forget To Share:

You may want to change the #email address (also known as account alias) that you use to sign in to your #Microsoft account and #XboxLive for one of the following reasons:

-You no longer have access to that email account because you changed email service providers.

-You changed your name or how you want to be addressed.

-You want to use an email address that you'll remember more easily.

-You prefer to use your phone number to sign in (available for use on Xbox One, Xbox.com, or account.microsoft.com).

YOU WILL NOT LOSE YOU GAME PLAY DATA OR YOUR PURCHASES, YOU AR JUST CHING HOW YOU LOGIN TO MICROSOFT SERVICES

****WARNING: If you change the email address on your Microsoft account it will change the login for all Microsoft Products including: Xbox Live, Office 360, Skype, Ondrive Ect.  If you are using an account that belongs to your parent please ask before you change, if they use this Microsoft Account for work it could give them a bad day.*****

Note It can take up to 48 hours for the change to your email address to be implemented on all Microsoft services. If you sign in to your Microsoft account on an Xbox One console by using your Kinect sensor, you might temporarily be asked to manually sign in with a controller. If you're still being asked to manually sign in after two days, try removing your profile from the console and then adding it back. (For help, see Gamertag and profile: Manage profile support.)

You can use any email address or phone number you have listed as an alias to sign in. To make it harder for someone to break in to your account, change your sign-in preferences to turn off any alias you don't want used to sign in.
