    Payment security of microsoft account on pc


    Hello fellas! I've come across a problem. My friend is using a PC to game. I'm using a Xbox to game. I have certain games that he likes to play so I've added my Microsoft / Xbox account to his PCs Microsoft store. He can now download my games to his PC and update them, when signed in to my account. I've realized that when I have my payment method card on my account he can go and buy anything with it. To his or mine account. I surely do trust my friend and that isn't the problem. The real problem is that the only security of those purchases is my friends PCs sign-in key, the same key he uses to login to his PC when starting up his PC. How can I manage it so whenever he uses my account on Microsoft store or basically anywhere around the device and maybe the internet too, he needs my MS password or confirmation other than his own passcode.

    :)

    No payment method.

    Hi Darey2013,



    Thanks for posting on the forum,



    I would suggest to do the following: from your phone go to settings > email+ account > and check the first email on the list under "Microsoft Account", then from your pc log in to this web site

    https://commerce.microsoft.com with the same email and password and check, please, under payment method if you can see your credit card listed, if not click
    on "add payment method" and add your credit card.



    After that restart your phone and check if you can buy an app to test the card.



    Let me know if this helps.



    Regards.
