by Peter Anderson Writer

Do you want to know how you can remove a user from your Xbox 360 or Xbox One gaming console? Possibly, you might be using your gaming console along with your friends or family members, but now you want to remove a few user profiles from your device. It’s also possible that you don’t need a particular user account on your Xbox gaming console.

This article will guide you about how you can remove a user account on Xbox 360 or Xbox One permanently.

Things You Need to Learn Before Deleting Xbox User Profile

If you remove a user account on your Xbox, it will significantly affect your console. Keep in mind that you can only delete the user account from your device locally, but the data stored in the cloud server, such as achievements, game saved data, and other things, won’t get deleted even if you delete a user profile.

However, if you want to get rid of all cloud-stored information as well, then you will need to delete your Microsoft user account permanently. Keep in mind that if you wish to back up the profile data before deleting, you will need to make sure that it is synced with the Microsoft cloud server. If your user profile data is not synced, you will lose it forever.
