How can I change my e-mail address linked to my windows live ID? It won't let me change it the regular way because it's a hotmail e-mail address.

Hi dezrun,

Thansk for using the Answers Forum.

This would be an issue that the Windows Live support would handle normally.

You should be able to click on the link below, login, and click the "Change" link next to your ID.
I think you might have to use Internet Explorer, as I've heard of issue with other browsers displaying the Change link.

This might only work if your not using a Hotmail account as your email. I'm not sure, I haven't performed this action.

Hope this helps.

Hello dezrun,

 Thank you for your reply back.

 I have been looking into this change and overall on many forums the individual will create a new account using a specific account.  I would go to the site above and submit a question directly with Windows Live in regards to email address information.  Thanks!
