When you have minecraft free in the gamepass and you don't continue whit gamepass if you buy minecraft whit any other email, and you try to use your old username minecraft.com say "profile name already exists", i wait for two month and still have the same message. I think that is a bug or something because if you don't continue whit the gamepass you can't change your username in minecraft.com, so you can't recover your minecraft username
