    How do I recover my account


    I've been trying to play Minecraft but there have been some issues. When I try to log in using the Microsoft email that I used during the migration it now logs me into a profile that I've never been associated with before. My gamertag for it is now different than what it should be and it looks as if that account is missing details to even start playing Minecraft Java edition. My Xbox gamertag thankfully is still the same and still shows my profile when I try to see all accounts on my Minecraft launcher which now is my account, my account before migration, and now this new random account.

    :)

    I got these suggestions from the Microsoft Community forum.No. 1 worked for me:

    Thank you for posting the query on Microsoft Community. I am glad to assist you on this.
    We have reproduce the issue here and we are able to access non-regional search for google using Microsoft Edge.

    2. Select Settings and click on Choose what to clear.
    3. Check the boxes Browsing history, Cookies and saved website data and Cached data and files and click on Clear.

    3. Select add someone else on this PC.
    4. Enter a user name and hit next.
    5. Click on Finish.
    6. Sign out from the current Account and Log into the new account.
    Step 3:
    It could also happen because of network issue. I suggest you to try with different network connection and check if it helps.
