    Microsoft account typo and verifying the email while using Steam


    When I first setup my PC, i created an account with a typo so I dont have access to the email. I then tried to boot up a Steam game and it asked me to sign in with my Microsoft account. It then asked to verify my email, but again I do not have access to it. I then went back into the system settings and created a new outlook email that is now the admin. I uninstalled the game thinking that it would ask me to sign in with a new email, but it still asks me for the verification code for the old email. What can I do in this situation? Thanks

    :)

    microsoft account typo

    I recently bought my laptop, and went through all of the steps to create a microsoft account, and then needed to exchange the laptop and go through the whole process again, and while doing so, made a typo in my email address without realizing, so I now
    have two microsoft accounts, and can't delete the incorrect one, because the account is sending verification codes to an email account that doesn't exist, and when I try to change the email address on the incorrect account, it tells me that it can't because
    that email address already exists with another microsoft account (my original account). I have tried several options, even going as far as to delete my correct microsoft account in order to correct the email address on my new account. I would really appreciate
    any advice, thanks.

    Account typo

    When I first built my pc and was setting up a Microsoft account I made a typo in my email address. Now that I cant verify it, it will not let me change my correct email to the primary email.
