About this tag
Discussions about changing the email address associated with a Windows user account or Microsoft account. Users seek to update their account email without creating a new user profile or losing installed applications and settings. Topics include switching from a Gmail to an Outlook address, resolving Microsoft account issues that trigger fix prompts, and disabling notifications about account problems. One thread also covers ISP email service outages affecting Mediacom subscribers, where email changes led to extended downtime. The tag focuses on practical steps and troubleshooting for modifying email associations in Windows environments.
I am looking to change the user information, email account without having to setup and new user and lose what's already installed and configured for the current user. Is this possible?
ADDED:
The computer account currently is - [email protected] and I want it to be [email protected]
Thanks...
Is there a Microsoft Account associated with my Windows 10 computer and if so how to I change the address to something else?

You got NO email.... Mediacom is a HUGE isp, 1.5 million subscribers... they were making email changes but the entire email system has been shutdown for the second day.
NO news agencies are aware of this yet.
I guess they need to call that kid from southpark to reboot their email...
