    Hello Dillon,

    Welcome to Microsoft Q&A forum.

    Before we proceed, may I confirm what do you mean by 2 Xbox accounts connect to one email?

    Do you mean that you can log in with these 2 accounts using the same email? As far as I know, that is not possible. OR are you referring to an account can log in with the email and the other is having it as a recovery email. If so, please let me know which account you want to keep.

    I'm waiting for your reply.

    To delete one of your Xbox accounts connected to the same email without affecting the other, you typically need to change the email address associated with one of the accounts first. Here are the general steps you can follow:

    1. Sign in to the Xbox account you want to keep.
    2. Change the email address associated with the account you want to delete. You can do this by going to the account settings on the Xbox or Microsoft account website.
    3. After changing the email address, you can then sign in to the account you want to delete and proceed with the deletion process.
    4. Make sure to follow the prompts to confirm the deletion.

    This way, you will have separated the accounts, and you can delete the one you no longer want without losing access to the other.
