I have removed my hotmail account accidentally, how can i restore this?
I accidentally (Saturday 5/4/2024) deleted my hotmail account and am desperately looking for a way to get it back, preferably with content.
It went as follows:
In account settings, > your details > Manage your email address or phone number for login > I initially added my business email address under account aliases
Next, I set my business address as the primary alias.
Then I deleted my email, not knowing that it would mean deleting my account completely.
I can't log in to my hotmail account anymore.
Please can you help me to restore my email account

I have also lost my hotmail account accidentally and I think it has been more than 60 days as when I fill out the recovery form the email is not found. Possibly to reach out to an actual customer support for them to look into this issue? I have had this hotmail account since 1998.
If the address was deleted, it cannot be recovered. Sorry.
Support cannot recover it for you.

Hi dghuman
I have exactly the same problem. My hotmail email account is no longer accessible after I changed my microsoft account to a new email.
Did you manage to get your account back? I've tried recovering the account via https://account.live.com/acsr but this purely triggered a password reset!
Did you find another solution?
Thanks!

To restore your accidentally deleted Hotmail account:
- Act Quickly: You have up to 60 days after deletion to recover your account.
- Go to the Microsoft Account Recovery Page: Visit account.live.com/acsr.
- Enter Your Email Address: Follow the prompts to recover your account.

If successful, your account will be restored. If more than 60 days have passed, the account and its data might be permanently deleted.
