    How do i change my birth date when accidently putting an underage year on my microsoft account?


    Hello Microsoft,I've wanted to play Minecraft multiplayer or Relams but I just can't because it says to check my Microsoft account settings. I think that's because I accidently have put the year 2010, but I am actually born in 2000. How do I fix this?Thanks,Tadej.

    Cannot change birth date at child account.

    Hello

    Once i did create an microsoft account for my child. Accidentally i did choose wrong year of birth so she is underage. i didnt care about it untill Microsoft do some changes in policy privacy(?) and since then she cannot play multiplayer in Minecraft. As she is visible as underage i cant change year of birth and unblock options in policy privacy(?).

    Can someone knowledgeable help me solve the problem step by step or at least change the privacy policy in her account settings?

    mail of her account is *** Email address is removed for privacy ***

    Thanks in advance.

    Change my date of birth on microsoft profile

    Hi Alex,

    To change the date of birth on your Microsoft Account, you can follow the steps below:

    • Sign in to
      Your info       on the Microsoft account website.
    • Click Edit your personal info.
    • Select the correct date of birth, and then select Save.

    If the birth date on a Microsoft account says that it belongs to a child, there are different steps to take in regions that regulate what children can do online. You can check this
    link for more information.

    Let us know how it goes.

    How to change birth date on microsoft accounts

    Hi ，ivanagrgic bozic



    Welcome to Microsoft Community.



    If your account age is set to 2014, then your account age must be underage.

    At this point your account is defined as a children's account under the legal age.

    Children's Accounts Under Legal Age Only a parent or other adult with authority to manage the child's account can update the date of birth of a child's account under the legal age.

    If your account is in a family group, the date of birth can be changed through the family manager.

    Sign in to your account at family.microsoft.com with your Microsoft adult account.



    Scroll to the bottom of the Your Family page and select Manage My Child's Profile Information.



    On the right side of the Manage Permissions page for the child account you want to change, select Edit this child's personal information and follow the instructions.

    (I understand that you are an adult, but your account date of birth was changed to 2014, the system will recognize it as a child account)



    You won't be able to change their date of birth without giving their account parental permission.

    For details, see: How to change a birth date on a Microsoft account

    I hope this reply could address your question, or if you will have any question on it, please feel free to let me know.

    Have a nice day.



    Best Regards,
