Windows 10: How do I change my account avatar?

Hello!

To set a photo of my account, I went to my Microsoft account profile, changed the name and set the photo.

When I log in and in Settings, I see a new name, but the photo is not installed.

I deleted and installed this photo several times within a few days, but nothing changed on the computer - there was no new photo, and it is not now.

How to solve this problem?

Thanks!

Xbox live avatar not displaying correctly - shows up as a black box

Hello everybody,

I would suggest you try to do the following:

• Turn on the Xbox
• Log on to your account if it doesn't login automatically
• Go to your avatar configuration area and change some feature (Hair, eyes, shirt, etc.)
• Save the change.

If you have a special avatar customization like Halo or Gears of War suits avatars, try and see what happens if you go back to a basic setup. Once you saved the changes on the Xbox, wait until the changes get pushed to the device. You can also try to turn
of the phone and switch it back on again to see if the update comes faster.

Hope this solves the issue, Merry Christmas to everybody!

 

Can't Change avatar in Avatar Gadget

I have updated my Avatar in Xbox But the Avatar is not changed in Avatar Gadget it shows the same old avatar. What Should I do??

 

Avatar vanished!

Hi, Thanks I will give this a try. I did not even know that list of options existed, most were set to "everyone", but I have now set profile sharing to blocked as you suggested and I will see what happens. Would you reccommend a I change any others to blocked?

Thanks.
