  1. Terminate Original Email acct yused for my Microsoft Acct (HOW)


    I want to delete the original email address I used to create my Microsoft Acct ( And therefore use to log in to Windows). I have already created a different account but it is technically an "alias|"


    The "alias" is now marked as the Primary. However, my account seems to still be related to that OLD email I want to delete.


    How do I change my real Microsoft acct email ID and Windows log ons so I can truly delete that old email?

    :)

    My mispelledmail acct

    one of my e mail addresses is misspelled, but is one of those accts that pops up when I go to log in to an e mail acct. How do I remove this misspelled acct from this list of accts that pop up as suggestions when I begin typing in the email acct I want.

    and change the spelling

    using email acct to log in your windows 10 on pc?


    nope not at all ,[that I know of anyway ] I guess we are just suggesting the use of another acct just to be on the safe side ,
    never hurts to be safe .
    I actually do you my most used Microsoft acct . but for important emails I use a non Microsoft from my internet service provider ..

    MS Acct vs Local acct


    I think you can take extra mesurments like two-step authentication, but as you said, using an MS Acct needs you to be more carefull than a local one.
