I'm in a bit of a bind trying to recover my Microsoft account. I originally made this post in r/microsoft, but I was advised to ask here instead.
Here's the situation:
- The emails tied to my account are solely used for one game, and no other platform or app uses them. I specifically created these emails just for my gaming accounts.
- I have completely forgotten the username for these emails, which is why I'm seeking help.
- I've tried using the 'forgot username' option, but it only shows a few blurred letters and doesn't really help me figure it out.
- My phone number is linked to all of them, but I don't remember the recovery emails, although I do own them and can access them if needed.

I'd recommend reaching out to Microsoft support while you're still active on this post. They can assist you in recovering your username. When I did it, they contacted my phone with a code and provided my email address directly, but you must know the Xbox username associated with it. Good luck!
Definitely go for the live chat option. It's usually pretty effective!
