Have you lost the login information of Mojang Account or the Microsoft Account?



If you have forgotten the login information of the Mojang/Minecraft Account, then I suggest you to follow the steps mentioned in

If you have forgotten the login information of the Microsoft Account, then follow the steps mentioned in

If you still have issues, then I suggest you to contact Mojang Customer Support and they

We understand your concern. However, the prompt might be because as you have mentioned that you have not logged in to the account for long period and we would need some information regarding the issue.

4. Then try removing secondary account.

Deleting hotmail accounts?

Dont log into them for 90 days. Used to be jsut 30 days. If you do nto log in for a certain length of time, the account gets removed. It can be re-activated for a certain length of time afterwords.

NOte that any log-in, using MSN messenger, or even a "live account" for gaming, will be considered a real log-in. ALso, having any game keys associated with teh live account will make it not get deleted as well.
