Hello,

I created a Outlook email account and I have a other outlook email address that used to be a Hotmail address. Before I knew that you can rename a Outlook account I created another account with the same name. Is it possible to merge the two accounts.

Thanks,

    What about merging two Office subscriptions?  I have two accounts where two Office subscriptions were ordered.  I only want one, with all documents from both

    Back in April 2013 when Leilani posted, linked account existed and the page was available. Linked accounts were eliminated back in June of 2013.

    Link does not work.  Leads to

    "We can't find that page

    Make sure the web address is correct, or try using a different link to get to the page you want."

    this is what I wanted to do. my college gave me an Office account different than my MS account that I am typing from. I cannot log into my office account unless I log into an unknown computer because my browser automatically logs me into this MS account on office.com. My office account is using my school email and this account is using my personal email. This drives Windows 10 crazy because I use this account to log into Windows and it wouldn't accept my school login on Office. I guess Windows 10 has some kind of auto completion for all MS products. Windows 7 allows me to login to office using the correct school email whereas Windows 10 doesn't. That is why I want to link or merge office and Microsoft accounts
