Windows 10: My Microsoft Account was Hacked, I need to recover it.

Hi, a few months ago, my Microsoft account was hacked. I have been working with a new one that I made, but have since ran into a problem because I wanted to play Minecraft with friends, and the Minecraft account is linked to that Microsoft account, which I no longer have access to. Whoever hacked the account has changed the email, and when I try to recover the account with the Account Recovery form, it says "an account with this email address does not exist."Really not sure what to do, and I really don't want to lose everything I have associated with that account.Thanks in advance!

Recover Hacked Microsoft account

Hi,



Thank you for writing to Microsoft Community Forums.



I understand that your Microsoft account is hacker and you are unable to change the password for it. I’ll certainly assist you with the issue.



Ideally, if the Microsoft account gets comprised or hacked the best option is to change the password for the account. Since you are unable to change the password, I would suggest you to fill the ACSR form and provide as much as accurate information
possible.



To fill the recovery form, navigate to
account.live.com/acsr and provide the email address, phone number, or username for the account you are trying to recover as well as the other requested information.



You may also want to have a look at the tips to fill the recovery form. To see the tips, select
