Windows 10: Wrong new email address been generated by Windows 10, How to change

I have an aol.com email address. However on my new laptop when I send mail from that address it arrives in my name, but with an email address in the format of outlook_5747479e9&EE9

How can I change this to my standard address?

I cannot get my Windows 10 email address changed.

I am having one heck of a time trying to change my ‘OLD’
email address registered to MS Windows 10 changed.*Banghead When I follow the instructions to
change my email address, I get a response that something is wrong! It doesn’t tell me what is
wrong but to reenter the information. I have done this a couple of times with
no success.
I have Office 365 and I have no problems with getting into
the admin center with my new e-mail. It was easy to work with them to make the
change. My old email provider just canceled all the accounts with two months’
notice and I have no contact with them. You can imagine what a headache that
was!*Mad2 My new email provider is through Office 365 and although it costs a few
bucks a year, I am very happy with the service and my own domain.
Any suggestions?
John
