How To Recover A Lost Hotmail Password?
If you are not able to access your Hotmail account or forgot
your password then you can recover your Hotmail account by following few steps.
Make sure you have your phone number or email address associated with your
Hotmail account that you want to recover.
Step 1: Open the Outlook.com/homepage: Hotmail account is
also called Outlook and can also be accessed by logging into outlook.com sign
in page.
* All inactive accounts can be recovered up to 365 days
since the last time you logged in. And if you have not accessed your account
over a year or more than a year it would be deleted.
* Hotmail account gets deleted permanently within 30 days if
you do not retrieve or reactive again after manually deactivating your account.
Step 2: You will see a option “Can’t access your account?”:-
Below Sign in you will find this option, just click on that.
Step 3:- There would be 3 options on the screen. You need to
select “I forgot my password” and then Click “Next”.
Step 4:- Then in the box “Microsoft account” on the screen,
you need to enter you Hotmail Email Address that you want to open. Also fill
the Captcha and then click “Next”.
Step 5:- Verification Process: To reset your page you need
to follow one of the few steps to verify your identity. Verification depends on
contact preference that you have set when you opened an account. There are 4
steps to verify.
i. Email - Type in the secondary email address that you had
mentioned for recovery of your account. A verification code will be sent on
that email address.
ii. Text- For this option you need to enter your mobile
number that you have put in when you first time created this account. A unique
verification code would be sent on your mobile number.
iii. Use an app – If you have installed the Microsoft
Account app in your mobile phone then you can also use that app to generate a
unique verification code.
iv. Don’t have any information- There is an option called “I
don’t have any of these”. If you do not remember your mobile number or
secondary email address associated with you account then click on “I don’t have
any of these”. After clicking a questionnaire will open in front of you for you
to answer. This will prove your identity with Microsoft. Make sure you remember
some old details about your account.
Step 6. Fill the answers of the questions asked by
Microsoft. Questions like your previous password, account creation date,
questions related to your account usage etc. Try to answer all the questions
correctly. Hotmail Tech Support Australia Team will match your answer with the
answer that you given at the time of account creation and if that matches your
account would be recovered. This process may take few days.
Step 7 Get you verification code: You must have received
the verification code on your mobile number or email address or to whichever
mode you have chosen.
Email- If your chosen verification method is email then in
new Tab login to your secondary email address and check verification email. It
can be in Inbox or Spam. Open the mail.
Step 8. Enter the code: The unique code that you have
received enter that in the Hotmail page in the code box. If you have closed
that page by mistake then you can again open it by following the same steps.
Step 9. Create a new password: Once you enter the
verification code, you will be taken to account reset page. You will be given
an option to create a new password that you will use to access your Hotmail
account in future. Make sure you create a strong password which is easy to
remember and do not share it with anyone.
Step 10. Log into your account. Now you are ready to login
to our Hotmail account by using your new password.
These steps will definitely help you recover your lost
hotmail password. But if you still are not able to recover or understand any of
the step then call Outlook helpline number Australia. The entire team of Hotmail Support Australia is online to provide completely Outlook assistance at
one call.
