Windows 10: How to change from a email microsoft to a gmail microsoft with out losing my information on...

Please help me know how to change from one email to another gmail account with out losing information on my computer .

Login and microsoft email

It asks for a microsoft account and i created one with a gmail that isnt mine (misspelled).

I created another microsoft account with another gmail, and it switched to that email, but then when i tried to log in into microsoft from the browser it told me they cannot acess this account and they suggested me to change the email, which i did. so the profile i have on my pc has the old email listed but i did change this email for that same micorsoft profile.

sorry i say user but its actually another microsoft acccount

 

Is this a scam? Email name changed without permission and a legitimate email from Microsoft

Hi Chameleon,

Thank you for posting your query on Microsoft Community.

I understand that you are facing issues with Windows 10. I apologize for the inconvenience caused to you.

The issue could occur if there is change in account information or it could be spam email.

To assist you better, please provide us the below information:

• When you say that "my gmail account name had been changed to a random Hotmail", which account name has been changed recently? Is the account information for gmail account has been changed or is there any changes in account information of Microsoft Account
  by logging through

I suggest you to try to login to the Microsoft Account by following below steps and check if there is any changes in the account information. Also try to change the Microsoft Account password?

I like to inform you that the Gmail account can be associated with the Microsoft Account. Gmail address which has been linked, verified and associated with the Microsoft Account can have Gmail domain name. You will be able to login to Microsoft Account using
the same Gmail email address.

Reply to us with the information, so that we can assist you better.

Let us know if you need any further assistance on Windows related issues and we will be glad to help.

I had the same email (posted email above was the same format as mine) above. MS was changing my gmail account name to a new gmail account.

The account name they changed was one I never had. I am not on Windows 10 I use Windows RT on Surface2

The same question needs an answer WHY is MS CHANGING my gmail account name.?
