Windows 10: Someone changed my account email within the past week, maybe two weeks, and I have not been...

The problem is that this is the same account I have been signed into on my current PC for about 3 years now, and it still will not let me change my email back. Is there genuinely nothing I can do? The email they switched it to isn't even remotely the same as any other email I use and the automated system is telling me my attempts to recover my account aren't good enough. I have had this account for almost a decade now, and have an insane amount of information stored on it. Am I being told that, even though my current PC is set to my home computer, there is absolutely no way to override this?

Outlook displaying emails of last two weeks

Hi Rick,

Thank you for posting in Microsoft Community.

I understand that your Outlook view shows emails from last week or two weeks.

May I know if this is only happening in Windows 10 Mail App?

By default, when you first set up your account, the Mail app downloads email messages from the past two weeks. All your older messages are still available online, such as at
https://www.outlook.com.

If you want to change the number of messages downloaded to the Mail app (also known as your sync duration) use the following steps.

• 1. Go to Start and open
  Mail.
• 2. At the bottom of the left navigation pane, select the
  Gear icon.
• 3. Select Manage Accounts and select your email account.
• 4. Select Change mailbox sync settings.
• 5. To see older messages, under
  Download email from, choose any time.

However, if this is the case in Outlook.com or Outlook on web I would suggest you to check the Mail Settings. I would suggest you to refer

Where are my email messages or calendar events in Mail and Calendar for Windows 10?

If the issue persists in your webmail, you may also post your query in
Outlook.com forums available in Microsoft Community.

Unauthorized Emails from my account?

It is more than likely that your email account was hacked, either by a virus sniffing your password, or just simply hacked.

Either way, change your password on your email account. Unfortunately the damage by already be done. They already have your contact list and your email address associated with that contact list. There is nothing stopping them from sending out emails using their own SMTP servers to everyone on your contact list and claiming the emails are from your email address. They don't actually have to have access to your yahoo account or even any yahoo server to send emails to people that come from your address.
