Created a hotmail account on may of this year.

It is to be used as a inbox only to collect members email address and give them a pw for the members only area on our website
Since creating nothing has gone in or out.

The address has now been issued for them to contact and i have forgotten the damn password

I have tried every pw i normally use plus a few that could have been possibles

I have tried to get in viw the help pages but as i have not sent any messages rom it i cannot answer some of the questions and as a result tells me insufficient info

Is there anyway i can get around this or does anyone konw of a way of getting into the account

Did they not ask you for any kind of recovery info when you set it up?

Does https://account.live.com/password/reset do anything?

And get a password manager like KeePass or LastPass or 1Password or Bitwarden to stop it happening again smile
