  1. My password is being changed constantly, what do I do?


    A few days ago, I got a malware on my PC and I got all my passwords leaked.

    I got my Microsoft account back, and now I have to reset my password every time I'm trying to log in with my password, if I don't change it so I keep getting denied.

    I also don't have my Email as a recovery Email and instead I have the intruder's Email (The email where it sends the password reset).

    How can I change my recovery Email and how do I prevent my password from changing constantly?

    :)

    My password is being changed constantly, what do I do?

    Hi and thanks for reaching Microsoft Xbox gamer's community. My name is Josef.

    I'm an Independent Advisor and a Microsoft Xbox user like you.

    Hope you're doing great today despite this Ariel

    The best option for you is delete all the current / leaked alias and create a new one following this guide:

    https://support.microsoft.com/en-us/office/add-...

    After that, go to your Microsoft account security page

    https://account.microsoft.com/security

    Then change the password and use a stronger password. (You can use a keychain or password generator for this purpose)

    Finally, go to advanced security options and delete the unknowns emails / update your security emails and phones;

    Enable two steps verification and add an authenticator app. In that way you should not receive this message or the possibilities to be hacked again are going to be reduced to almost zero
