  6. Once you've completed the conversion, you'll have a Microsoft account with your existing Hotmail address.

Note: After converting your Hotmail account to a Microsoft account, you'll no longer be able to access your Hotmail account separately. All your emails, contacts, and other data will be migrated to your new Microsoft account.
