Windows 10: I Downloaded A Game On My Daughter's Account

Hello,


I accidentally bought Cuphead on my daughter's account instead of my own. I got it on my PC Windows 10.

I tried to sign into my daughter's account on the Microsoft Store app but it would not work. It says the account does not exist.

Could I either get a refund and redeem it on my account or get a different code please? Thanks.

:)

moving a game license from my account to my daughters

Hi,

Is it possible to move a microsoft store game from my user account to my daughters? I have just installed a game (sea of thieves PC) and happened to use my own profile while installing it. So now the game is tied to my account instead of my daughters which
is inconvenient. We belong to the same microsoft family.

Best regards,

Bjorn
