  1. How can I recover and change my account details


    I recently was trying to regain access to an old Xbox account. To note, I have two Xbox ones and have played on this account on both Xboxes. However, I haven’t played on it in about a year. When I tried to log into it on one of the Xboxes, it said it needed a password even though I don’t remember there being a password. The email associated was an outlook email, and the number was an old number I don’t have access to anymore. I tried doing password recovery, went through all the hoops and filled out the wizard recovery form, but none of that worked. I then remembered my other Xbox I hadn’t used in a while. I plug it in, turn it on and try to log into the account, and it lets me right in(because there was no pass key setting). My question is, is there a way for me to change the account details or show that I have true ownership? I can access the account on one of my Xboxes, but I don’t remember the account details when it comes to filling out the form to change it because the account is like 7+ years old.

    :)

    Trouble downloading game on demand. (Fallout 3)

    How can I change that? I went into my account details, but was unable to change my country/location. (Country/Regiopn option was bold and unchangeable)

    Security Issues.

    Does anybody know how to change your security question or how to recover the answer? I have my account and can access it but can not do certain things due to not remembering my account security question. Any suggestions?

    Hi there! I'm more than happy to help you!

    I'm sorry you are experiencing this with your Microsoft account being compromised. I understand how frustrating it is and I would totally feel the same way if I were in your shoes. No worries, let me help you sort this out.

    Kindly follow the instructions in the interactive tool using the link below in order to recover your account:

    Hi JCostaJ123, my name is Daniel and I would be happy to help.

    I'm sorry to hear that someone stole your account. I know how frustrating it can be when this happens. Let's say that the only alternative you have at this moment is to send the account recovery form (You mentioned that you already did it but believe me, this is the only option there is to recover access to the accounts), I have also been through this situation and I can give you some recommendations:

    The first thing is to enter information that the account has, in case a phone number or card has been deleted, you should simply omit that information and not add it to the form. That said, you can enter the following link:

    https://account.live.com/acsr

    Please note that Support cannot help recover accounts, but in that case if you want to contact them and talk in a live chat for more detailed information, you can access the following link.

    Support: https://support.xbox.com/contact-us/

    Remember that this is a public forum of the Microsoft community where we are players like you who try to help/guide other players to find the solution to the problems they are experiencing, however we do not belong to Microsoft, this means that we do not have access to the accounts or information of other players.

    Let me know if you have any other questions or if this information was useful to you, remember that your answer is very important and I will be willing to continue helping you.

    Thank you for being so kind and I wish you good luck.

    Best regards,
    Daniel.

    How can I recover my account?

    It’s not that there is someone in my account, the hacker used a script to lock my account, he showed me it, then the next day it’s locked and I can’t get in because it says i have 2fa on.
    Without posting any personal info, can you explain exactly what happened?

    Did you give any of your own info to this "hacker"? Enabling 2FA makes your account much more resilient to being hacked, not less, so I'm wondering if you gave them certain info that let them take over your account.
