❌ 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.

Fair warning: you might not be able to.

THIS IS WHY MICROSOFT LOGIN IS TERRIBLE.
-
Microsoft is awful, I been hacked and it states it sending a verification code to my mobile and it doesn't.
-
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.

Thanks for the valuable information Leo!
-
Leo we know all this. Please don't mislead viewers with the wrong title.
-
Another great one Leo... Thanks for sharing.

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
-
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.

TY

This is not what the title display ''to recover .....'' this is video just shows the instructions what we already know, and see , he is telling us what it means .
-
I agree but My problem is they have verified my account but I haven't got confirmation atleast I need email id of Microsoft customer support
-
Hi i have been locked out of my account and can't get in changed my phone number and used 2 emails is account gone
-
I'm just gonna call Microsoft support
-
ok, Leo my emails are locked and I can't get a recovery code because my cell phone number won't work no matter how many different ways I put it in. The next try another method option is so convoluted it just sends me in circles to the same place. Time to dump Microsoft altogether??????
-
Leo, is there not a MS phone number to call to get it back?
-
