Too Many Requests error when logging in

Hi, my name is Julian and I'm an Xbox gamer just like you. Let's try to solve your issue together.

The "Too Many Requests" error usually means there were multiple rapid login attempts, triggering a temporary block on the account.

Please try these steps:

1) Wait it out. The block is usually temporary (up to 24 hours). Avoid repeated login attempts during this time.

2) Clear cache/cookies or try a different browser/device.

3) Use the correct recovery path: If you're not resetting the password but recovering access, use this link: https://account.live.com/acsr

4) If the recovery form fails, Microsoft support won’t be able to override security protections, but you can also check: https://support.xbox.com/en-US/help/account-pro...

Please let me know if it worked or not and I would be happy to assist you further. Thank you!

Hello and welcome to our community!

We’re excited to have you here and have great conversations! I'd be happy to be of assistance.

I’m sorry to hear that your account is being targeted by unauthorized access attempts. It seems likely that others may know your email address and are trying to sign in to reset your password or change your email. In the meantime, since you're getting an error "Too Many Requests", please try to sign back in again after a couple of hours or after 24 hours. Once you successfully signed in, you can then follow the steps below to secure your account.

To secure your account, I recommend changing your primary email address. Please follow the steps below:

1. Sign in to https://account.microsoft.com/profile

2. Under Account info > Click on Sign-in Preferences

Note: It will ask you to verify your account, enter the password again or enter a code that will be sent to your email address.

3. Under Account aliases > Click on Add email.

4. Choose Create a new email address and add it as an alias > Enter your desired email. That will be for example *** Die E-Mail-Adresse wurde aus Datenschutzgründen entfernt. ***

5. You will be redirected to previous page again and Under Account aliases > choose your new email address and make it Primary.

6. Now, under Sign-in Preference, uncheck your previous email.

Note: This will be your new email address for your account. You can use your new email address temporary so that hackers will no longer be able to use your previous email address. Use the same password that you have for this account. You can use it for like a week then you can revert it back to your previous email. Using your new email address, if someone will try to sign in using your previous email, they will get " Account does not exist" Error.

I would like to clarify, is this happening with every website where you're trying to stream a video or only for a specific one?
