    I want to install minecraft; I bought it on the minecraft website and used the installer, but it tells me I need to own the Microsoft installer too. Unfortunately it keeps automatically trying to verify it using my old account, which doesn't own the game, and I can't change it from it. I can't remove it in 'Email and Accounts' either as it was the first account I registered.
