Yes, you need to make your forum account’s primary email the one you use for your Microsoft account

Guide if you're unsure how to change your forum acc's email

Step 1: Go to preferences

Step 2: Under ‘Email’, click the wrench (highlighted) and then click on the drop down that says ‘Change Email’

Step 3: Type the email that’s connected your microsoft account and click ‘change’. It should send you an email to confirm, so you’ll need to head over to your inbox to do that.

Does my Microsoft account email need to be my primary email or does it just need to be listed in my forum account?

It needs to be your primary email

[HudsonDog59]

What about an alias account. Because for my Xbox account, the primary email is my personal one. For here it is my alias account. Some one please answer this

[unikern1o]

[HudsonDog59]

When is this change going to happen

[aaddonniiss]

Sooooo will the forums itself automatically make a new account with my Microsoft account?

[ShadowYEP]
