How To Delete Xbox Live Profile From a Xbox 360 Console

 

Each different user on a Xbox 360 console has their own unique profile that contains their own gamertag, Xbox Live membership, gamerscore, avatar, downloaded content and game save data. The data that is related to the Xbox 360 account is stored onto the attached hard drive on the console. If you are selling your Xbox 360 to somebody or you no longer want your Xbox Live profile on your Xbox 360 console, you can permanently delete it from the hard drive. This is so nobody else can use it. This is still possible offline, without connecting to Xbox Live because the profile is stored onto the hard drive of your console, not on the Xbox live servers.

1) Power on your Xbox 360 console, connect the controller and press the 'Eject' button to pop out the disc tray. This is because you don't want the game to start, you want the main menu to appear on screen.

2) Now from the 'Main Menu', keep going to the right side of the different options, until you see 'Settings'. 

3) Then go into 'System' > 'Storage' > 'Hard Drive' > 'Gamer Profiles'.

4) You will see now see all the current gamer profiles that are stored onto Xbox 360 consoles hard drive. Find the profile that you want to delete from the list.

5) Now select the gamer profile you want to remove, two options will be provided to you, choose the option that is most suited. Option 1 which is to 'Delete Profile Only', which will just delete the Xbox live profile and nothing else. Then there is option 2, which is to 'Delete Profile With Items', which will remove the profile, as well as all DLC content and game save data that is related to it.
