I haven’t played Minecraft since 2015, but I get the feeling I might again in the new few years as I wanna find new hobbies. I know that game has changed a whole lot but I don’t have any official online data on it.
I’ve had this Microsoft account for over a decade and its probably full of personal information that I wanna let go of, I’ve already exported all my data. I would need to pay $30 for another copy of Minecraft, same price I paid in 2013. I just did a bunch of searching and its not possible to transfer my Minecraft license to another account.
I dunno, although pirating Minecraft is rather easy, I’d be a bit wary of deleting an account you spent money on like this. Doubly so if you used Hotmail.
Nothing worse than finding you need access to an old account, then realizing it’s registered to an old email address you deleted. Headache!
If I was you I’d delete all the data you can from the account, set a new very strong password, enable 2FA and leave it dormant. Never know when you might need it again ya know?
this is the way. you will be glad you didnt delete it completely.
use this opportunity to delete all accounts you can that are associated with that email that are actually useless.
