    I need help with this account. The account was/is in my husbands name and he passed away...


    My husband passed away on 6/1/2023 and the account was in his name. I need to update the information on the account and remove his phone number. Also I cannot access my EMail at this time I have no idea what the account number is and I need to change my password to something I can remember the system will not allow me to make the changes.If I change/edit the profile I can't loose any of the information in the EMail account. There is information that pertains to his death that I need to keep and add to an existing folder. Please if you can call me at 540-840-8184 thank you. I'm pretty despe

    Remove account

    I suggest you backup your personalized files first before removing the account.
    To delete an account, follow these steps:
    1. Press WIN + X keys and click Command Prompt (Admin) from the menu.
    2. Type the following command and press Enter. Replace test with the name of your sister's account. Code:

    email account hacked. please help

    Also may I suggest you change email accounts to one of the following.....

    Gmail
    Outlook

    The reason is they both use "Step two verification". This style of verification means even if a hacker gets your password they cannot log in to your account. You see every time someone try's to log in that hasn't been verified you will get a text or a phone call giving you a final code to log in. Its very easy and simple to setup also. The great thing is once you setup your Email application with a specific "application password" from that account you never have to log in again AND your account is protected from being logged in from foreign entities.

    I like the new outlook personally however Gmail is also damn good. Gmail also has an IP tracker that allows you to see WHERE the account has been logged in from. Anyway let us know if you wanna change over and have any questions. We will be happy to help and welcome to TPU!
