  1. Forgotten Password and Recovery phone number was lost


    I acquired a Microsoft product in May 2022, when I purchased my laptop. I have now forgotten my Microsoft account password and lost the phone with my old recovery phone number, 09567108059. I have attempted to troubleshoot the issue using the 'forgot password' option, but it was unsuccessful. How can this be resolved?

    :)

  2. Changing forgotten/lost administrator password

    Hi,

    "What to do if you forget your Windows 8/8.1 password"

    Change or Reset Your Password in Windows - Microsoft Support

    If you've forgotten your Windows password, there are several ways to retrieve or reset it:

    • If your PC is on a domain, your system administrator must reset your password.
    • If you're using a Microsoft account, you can reset your password online. For more info,
      go to the
      Reset your password
      webpage.

    • If you're using a local account, use your password hint as a reminder.
    If you've tried these suggestions and still can't sign in:

    • If you have Windows 8.1, you'll need to reinstall Windows.
    • If you have Windows RT 8.1, you'll need to contact your PC manufacturer.

    Appeal Account: Forgot password, recovery email no longer exists (deleted) and no phone number added. Using the same pc and remember the previous password.

    Appeal Account: Forgot password, recovery email no longer exists (deleted) and no phone number added. Using the same pc and remember the previous password.

    • Windows Crash, Reinstalled it using USB. Store passwords are lost and don't remember them.
    • MS-Account: Recovery email is deleted because google warning of suspicious activities, so I thought its hacked or something. Didn't add a phone number so can't reacover it by that.
