Finding out email address from recovery email
Hi All, new here, I’ve got my primary hotmail email address, over the years I’ve used this as the recovery email for a couple of different hotmail accounts, I’ve since forgotten what those email addresses were, is there anyway I can find out what they were from my main primary account? Thanks in advance

1. Check the Microsoft account recovery page: Visit the Microsoft account recovery page.
Enter the recovery email address and follow the prompts.
The system sends a verification code to the recovery email address. After entering the code, you can view the email address associated with the recovery email address.
2. Sign in to your Microsoft account:
Sign in to your Microsoft account using the recovery e-mail address
In the “Security” tab, look at “Account info” and “Contact info” and find the associated email address.
3. Check the e-mail client:
If the Recovery Mailbox is configured in an email client (Outlook, Gmail), check the sent and received messages to find the associated email address.
4. Contact Microsoft Support:
If you are unable to find the associated e-mail address by the above methods, contact Microsoft Support
Request assistance in locating the associated email address by providing the recovery email address and associated authentication information.this is so wrong, Microsoft he gotten so lame, 100 steps how to view current recovery email ,but they are all the wrong steps
