  1. Merging accounts on pc


    So downloading Starfield on the Xbox app has lead to some issues. I had to create a non Microsoft account on my PC just to play the game that I am being told by an XBOX tech support member to reach out to you guys about.I need to transfer/merge the new non-MS administrator account to my main one so I only have one active account and not two. How do i proceed to do this?This was the summation the Xbox tech support staff member gave me:"Just to sum up everything we have gone through today: Since you were facing issues launching your game, we have created a local user, which helped you run the ga

    Remove account

    I suggest you backup your personalized files first before removing the account.
    To delete an account, follow these steps:
    1. Press WIN + X keys and click Command Prompt (Admin) from the menu.
    2. Type the following command and press Enter. Replace test with the name of your sister's account. Code:

  3. merging two accounts?/

    Hi George,

    There are several account types used in the Windows 10 operating system, this includes the administrator accounts, local user accounts, personal email accounts and your Microsoft account. Some accounts can be merged but do take note that this depends on
    what you would like to merge. For us to resolve your concern, kindly answer the questions below:

    • When you mentioned that after changing an account password you now have two accounts, we would like to confirm if what you mean is that another new account under a different name got created instead?
    • What is the account that you were attempting to change the password on?
    • We would also like to confirm what is that account that you would like to merge?

    We look forward to your response to our queries.

    Merging accounts on pc

    Lost password on an Old Account, any way to merge accounts?

    1. Multiple accounts are probably against the rules.
    2. Why did you create a new account?
    3. Why do you want to merge them?
