How To Recover An Outlook.com Account Without The Recovery Phone Or Email

Ғылым және технология

❌ If you don't have access to your account recovery phone number or alternate email address, there is a process you can go through to regain access to your account -- maybe.
❌ Recovering a Microsoft account
If you forget your Microsoft account password, or it just doesn’t work, and you can’t access your recovery phone or email, start the account recovery process. Start to sign in to Outlook.com but click the “Forgot password?” link. Provide as much information as possible to prove your identity. If unsuccessful you may lose the account. Keep your recovery info current to avoid this situation.

    It would have been nice if they mentioned something like that when they asked for the number in the first place. Like a big bold text that says update this password before changing this number or something. I didn't even forget my password. I just entered it incorrectly by accident a few times, and it now wants a recovery code. And since I'm not some insane person who memorized all of my outgoing emails, I'm sol? Great system, really!

    I set up my account with a backup account, which i both use. Both are Microsoft. Whilst gaming on the one account got booted out snd asked to verify with a code. I try to sign into the other account for the code, they also ask me to verify this account with a code. So the code for acc 1 is being send to acc 2 and vice versa. Can't get into none of them.

    i know my password just can't verify. Lost my Xbox account like 6 months ago. I know my password but can't verify. And there seems to be NO ONLINE OR PHONE SUPPORT. Verification is the worst part of life. Forget 1 thing you type long ago and you can't win.

    For example, i used a credit card but it's been updated i guess, got a new one. And for the name part either it was my actual name or my Xbox username split up. Regardless the dumb bot doesn't help. I need to call and get someone to switch the verification code to a new email.

    Hi Leo, the problem I encounter is that when I go through the recovery process, when I get to provide emails where I sent messages to it does say those emails are not valid, even tho they are accurate 100% ! it seems is a Microsoft default, could you suggest something else? Thanks

    This is a good video... I am in the process of trying to get my email back. Some questions.... How do they weight the information. Example, they ask for email addresses and titles of sent emails. If I provide 50 of those, but get the date of birth wrong, will it still fail? These are the questions I have...

It took some digging but I eventually found the last 4 digits of my old debit card. That information was enough for the release of the account to me. Best of luck to you dude, I hope somehow you can manage.
