Microsoft ID deleted? Can't sign into xbox live?
I'm guessing I deleted my hotmail a while back maybe a couple months ago forgetting it was under my Xbox Live account. Since then everything was fine. Then my Xbox live ran out. A few days after it would ask me for my log in info and it would say "This email address isn't linked a Microsoft account. Make sure it's correct, then enter it again." It wouldn't let me redeem codes for another live membership, or see my friends list or pretty much anything under my account. I deleted the account off my console (not actually deleting it) and made a new one. I haven't used my live card yet since I want to get it on my old account but now I can't even download my old account since it says the email address I enter does not have a Microsoft I'd account. What do I do? All my achievements are gone. 2 years of hardcore gaming gone. Also my storage. I tried transferring memory that says "unknown profile" from my old account to my new account but it won't let me at all. Should I contact someone or something!
Microsoft won't let me upload video?!?
So I made a MV with Windows 7 Movie Maker and I'm trying to upload it to Youtube. But when I try signing into my Microsoft account to upload the video, a message keeps popping up saying "We can't sign you in because the network isn't available. Make sure your computer is connected to the internet and try again" But my computer is connected to the internet. Is there a way I can fix this? Please explain step by step.

Hello,By default, Microsoft recommends to use microsoft account in windows 10, but it is not mandatory.it is recommended so that you can take complete advantages of Microsoft products and your settings, preference and other account related information keep synced when you use another system with the same Microsoft ID.But if you have planned to move to a local windows account its easy to do so.use the following steps:1# Open settings:2# Go to Accounts:3# Select Sign in with a local account optionIt will ask you to first login to your microsoft account for authentication process and later will help you to use local account.There is one another advanced way to create and use a local account for which use the following steps:1# in the run dialog box use lusrmgr.msc command2# Select user folder option in the left pane and from Action menu select the New user option3# In the New user dialog box, after filling appropriate information, you can create a local user account4# Once an account is created that detail can be seen in the previous list screen. e.g. here if you see nic6 is my microsoft account while Ayan and Roxx are loca user accounts created by me.After user creation, you will always see the list of all available user accounts in the login screen to select.Hope you have your answer now.Feel free to contact in the case of any query and don’t forget to upvote if you like the answer.Stay connectedKeep posting questions.
I can't log in to a Microsoft account in Windows. What is the problem?
Yes you can open and see the apps but if you want to download and install them, you need to sign in with your Microsoft accountYou sure can open the windows phone store on your desktop. You can't download however. But, yea you can open!And guess what... You can. That's exactly what saving my credentials in the browser does, as now I only need to type my Windows account login information, then my browser remembers how to log into Google...Microsoft have adapted a similar approach as Apple to synchronize settings and data between your Windows powered devices. You can even synchronize passwords for websites, apps and networks between devices, as long as they are on your trusted list.The most obvious of the benefits in using a Microsoft account is the ability to download, install and restore modern apps from the Windows Store. If you have used Windows 8 and 8.1, you already know that these are different from traditional Desktop applications and they are more related to those you would download from Apple's App Store or Google's Play Store.If you have other Microsoft devices, like a Windows Phone or an Xbox, then a Microsoft account would help you access unified apps and games. This is a concept that was introduced with Windows 8.1 and Windows Phone 8.1 and it means that one app is made available on all of Microsoft's platforms. If you purchase an app once, from any Microsoft device, it will be available for all your devices with the same license. Evidently, your settings and data will be synced across devices. It will save you a lot of money when purchasing applications, because you will not have to buy the same app for each computer or device.For Microsoft, the advantage is more users, more sales and a unified eco system.

How long does it take Microsoft to send a verification code?
So I got a new desktop and it has windows 8.1. I was trying to get my skype set up and I had to use my microsoft account info to login. It then said I had to verify my account, ok that's fine, so I typed in the email it should send the code to and it WON'T SEND! I have had to this once before with a tablet I bought that came with 8.1 as well and it didn't send either. Idk what I did to get it to finally let me sign in on my tablet but nothing will work with this desktop and so now skype is locked out of all of my devices, I can't recover my account from microsoft b/c you need to be signed in on microsoft to contact microsoft. This is such a joke. I get that security is good but isn't it a little much when the actual user can't even access their account. P.S I am 200% that the email I stated for them to send me the verification code is the correct email. This is why I stick to ymail and gmail, smh. I still haven't recieved the verification code but it took them 2 minutes to send me an email saying I didn't fill out enough info to retrieve my account and it's now blocked. I barely use the dang account, how am I to remember any details about it other than my main information.
