Carlos,

It is always better to ask a user for their (preferred) email address and 
save it somewhere, than trying to hack/steal a user's private information.

That said, if a user created a Microsoft account and provided a valid email 
address, you can retrieve that email address from the registry, here:

HKEY_CURRENT_USER\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\IdentityCRL\UserExtendedProperties

But I would be careful about relying on the validity of those email 
addresses, as users often use different email addresses that are only 
available in their email program(s), which could be online programs.

Hope that helps,

Andreas
