    Nothing

    It a security meassure

    To keep people from stealing accounts

    You have 30 days to revoke proofs change request

    Hence the wait

    It is supposed to keep people informed of a compromise by allowing their proofs to validate any changes

    If it was instant there is no point in security because anyone would.have instant access to your account

    This is why proofs MUSt be upto date

    You never hand your personal info over to anyone

    Including for gamesharing period

    I appreciate the response and I understand that you still need assistance.

    I'm afraid this is the only option we have to recover your account since Microsoft Xbox Support is the only department that has the tools to investigate your case.

    Just a gentle reminder that we are only Microsoft gamers just like you here in this community forum. We are not Microsoft employees and we do not have tools to access any Microsoft System.

    I hope this information helps!

    Best regards,
    Darhyl

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

    I'm sorry you are experiencing this with your Microsoft account being compromised. No worries, let me help you sort this out.

    Since the hacker has added their recovery email to your account's security information making your security info change impossible, I would highly suggest you reach out to Xbox Support for further assistance as they have the tools and resources to properly investigate this case and possibly recover your account from the hacker's security info through escalation. You may contact them using the link below:

    Thank you for your kindness and understanding! Please feel free to let me know if you need anything else.

    Best Regards,

    If you updated your security info there is a 30 day waiting period that cannot be bypassed even by Xbox support.

    Why does resetting my security information take 30 days?

    • The 30-day waiting period helps Microsoft stop unauthorized people from trying to completely take over an account that isn't theirs. For example, an unauthorized person obtaining an account password through phishing or shared passwords across third
      party platforms. This waiting period gives the real account owner enough time to be alerted of any major changes and to cancel it if they didn't make those changes.
    • During this 30-day period, you'll still be able to access most Microsoft services. You won't, however, be able to do things that require a security code, like changing your password, viewing billing information, or buying new apps or games from Microsoft
      Store or on Xbox.
    • After the process of resetting your security information has started, you must wait the full 30 days for it to complete. However, if you regain access to a piece of your original security info, you can cancel the replacement yourself.

    Account Issue

    In step four if it is saying after you put the code in after updating the security information is saying that you have to wait 30 days for the update to take affect that means the phone number you are putting in that step is not the same phone number
    that they have for security verification and if you do not have access to the current security info but have access to the email and password then MS will allow you to change the security info but there is a 30 day waiting period for it to take affect.
