How do I merge two Xbox accounts?
To merge two Xbox accounts, unfortunately, it is not possible to directly combine or merge two existing Xbox accounts into one, as Microsoft does not offer this feature. However, you can share your Xbox subscription and content on your Xbox One or newer console by setting one console as your home Xbox and sharing it with other accounts.

Setting up and managing Xbox accounts can be a bit complex, especially when dealing with multiple accounts or transitioning between different consoles.
