Change your primary Microsoft Account email You may want to check the Microsoft account activity regularly to spot unauthorized access. Also, if your email got hacked, you may want to remove it or at least change the password. Maybe because you picked a temporary email address, or a work related email that you should not have used. You may want to change it later on to another email address for a variety of reasons. Recently, accounts are used to link Windows licenses to as well.Īnother issue that may arise is that you pick an email address for the Microsoft Account during sign up out of necessity. It is still possible to switch from a Microsoft Account to a local account later on though. While there is still an option to switch to a local device, users may overlook that option easily. It is the suggested sign in method on Windows 10 devices.
However, my email address ends in the domain, so I’m curious what the effects of deleting it as an alias would do.Microsoft is pushing Microsoft Accounts hard with the release of Windows 10. I’ve read that it depends on the domain of the email address, and whether it is a microsoft-domain email or not. I’ve logged into my microsoft account via my computer, and was able to follow these steps, but was not sure whether my actual e-mail would be deleted, or just it’s association with the microsoft account. This entails creating a new e-mail with a microsoft domain, setting it as the primary alias of my account, then deleting the former alias (original email used to create my account).
I’ve tried to research different ways to change the email address of my Microsoft account, and I am under the impression that there’s only really one possible way. I have a question regarding changing the email associated with my Microsoft account. The views of the moderation team do not reflect the view of Microsoft or its subsidiaries.
