Conditions that must be met before you can move your Xbox Live profile
Current Microsoft account:
- Funds remaining on the current Microsoft account will not move with your gamertag. You must spend the funds before you can transfer your gamertag.
- The gamertag was not created or changed within the last 30 days. If you try to move a gamertag before 30 days have passed since you created or changed it, you’ll get the error “Sorry, we can’t change your Microsoft account right now.”
- The gamertag has not been moved within the last 30 days. If you try to move a gamertag before 30 days have passed since the last time you moved it, you’ll get the error “Sorry, we can’t change your Microsoft account right now.”
- The current Microsoft account can have an Xbox Live or Xbox Music subscription associated with it, but no other subscription (such as Office 365). Sign in at account.microsoft.com to see if this is the case.
- The current Microsoft account has only one billing account associated with it. If you have ever made purchases in more than one country, have subscriptions such as Office 365, or have bought an app through the Windows Store, you may have more than one billing account. Go to account.microsoft.com to find out.
Target Microsoft account:
The target account cannot have any of the following associated with it:
- An Xbox Live profile
- A gamertag
- A billing account or any subscription of any kind
- An Office 365 subscription
- OneDrive paid storage
- Any past purchases from the Windows Store
- Any other non-Xbox subscription
Note It is not possible to merge your gamertag with another already existing Microsoft account that has had a subscription of any kind. Creating a new Microsoft account is the best way to transfer your gamertag.
Create a new Microsoft account (if needed)
If you don’t already have the Microsoft account that you want to transfer your gamertag to, go to account.live.com and click Sign up now. (If you are signed in to an existing Microsoft account, you’ll have to sign out first.) Follow the instructions to create a new account.

Gamertag Search
A bug in Xbox Live allowed hackers to find any email associated with a registered gamertag. The site used to report bad behavior in the Xbox online community was hiding a vulnerability that allowed hackers to snag user email addresses.
Motherboard reported that last week an anonymous hacker reached out to them claiming to be able to find the email attached to any Xbox gamertag. Motherboard verified the hacker's claims by sending them two gamertags, one of which was created specifically for this testing. Within seconds the hacker sent back the email addresses these tags were registered with. Normally, these email addresses are supposed to be private. Another anonymous hacker told Motherboard that the bug could be found in the Xbox Live enforcement portal. This page is where players can contact the Microsoft team that monitors Xbox's online communities.

Despite the apparent threat to customer security, Microsoft's original response to this security breach was not exactly urgent. In an email response to Motherboard's bug report, the Microsoft Security Response Center (MSRC for short) said, 'An email may be considered sensitive information, however, since it provides nothing else to identify the issuer, is not something that meets MSRC bar for service. As such, MSRC is not tracking the issue and will leave it to the product group to determine a mitigation as needed.'

But on Tuesday a Microsoft spokesperson confirmed that it 'released an update to help protect customers.' One of the anonymous hackers who contacted Motherboard specifically requested that reporting on the leak not be published until after a fix had been made because it was 'the easiest vulnerability I've ever found.' Ensuring such precautions are taken is important, even with information that's not extremely delicate like email addresses. Hackers have a precedent of using these kinds of vulnerabilities to dox people, like in 2017 when they used a similar bug on Instagram and created a searchable database to dox celebrities.
