Windows 10: Sign-in not possible because old sign-in email address deleted non-microsoft email address

Hi there,I want to sign in to an old microsoft account so that I can delete it. However, I only have the email address without the corresponding password. It doesn't help to get the password reset because I can't access the email account.Will the account eventually be deleted if I don't access it?Thanks!

old email addresses

Thank you for updating me HA.111

Here is the step to remove that old email address.

Start typing an email address into the “To” field. As soon as you see the old email address being recommended as one of the potential candidates, use the down arrow key to scroll through the list of suggestions. Once you highlight the old email address, type the delete key. In many cases, this will actually remove the entry not only from the current list of suggestions but from future suggestions as well. You may even find that as you mouse over the drop-down list the highlighted item will have an “x” to explicitly allow you to delete it.

Just do this step and your good to go.

Continue to have an escellent day HA.111

Delete old email sign in address

Hi,

Difficulties verifying the old security details in your Microsoft account may result in errors canceling or removing the profile. For us to rectify the account removal concern, we'd like to verify the following information:

• Where exactly are you prompted to sign in with the old email address?
• Have you tried resetting the password for the old account to recover it?
• Were you able to log in successfully on your account online?
• Have you made any significant changes to your account prior to this happening?
• What troubleshooting steps have you taken so far?

Your reply is highly appreciated.

 

Change sign in account (new email address) ?


I have a new email address so I want my Microsoft sign in to be this email and not my old one. Does anyone know what to do and how to transfer existing purchases to this new email so that signing in to Windows 10 uses my new email as the administrator?
