Bit of a long shot this, but here goes.
In May i bought my son an Xbox. To get it going i needed a windows live ID for the parental account - which i duly set up.
Some time later i deleted that windows live ID. So far no problem.
Now we need to edit some permissions on his account, but it requires my confirmation. Except there is now no parental account linked.
I've phoned Microsoft who tell me that they can reset the password if i tell them the ID. My issue is I know the password - just not the ID.
Anyone got any ideas about how i can figure out what the deleted email address was. Can i find it anywhere on my PC?
Any assistance appreciated.
