    Welcome Abdelrahman Shaker,

    Please note that our forum is a public platform, and we will modify your question to hide your personal information in the description. Kindly ensure that you hide any personal or organizational information the next time you post an error or other details to protect personal data.  

    Thank you for reaching out, and I'm sorry you've been locked out. It's frustrating, especially after filling out the recovery form so many times. I'll do my best to help you.

    A few quick questions so I can guide you better:

    • Do you remember turning on "Two-step verification" for this account, or did you only have a phone number and the authenticator listed as ways to verify?
    • Apart from Minecraft, is this Microsoft account still signed in anywhere else? For example, Windows on your PC, the Outlook app, an Edge browser profile, or the Xbox app.
    • When you fill out the recovery form, are you using a device and internet connection you've used with this account before, like your home PC?

    In the meantime, you can try these steps: Make sure the password isn't being mistyped On the sign-in page, check that "Caps Lock" is off and your keyboard is set to English, not Arabic. Then check for a saved password: in Microsoft Edge, go to "Settings" > "Passwords". On Windows, open "Credential Manager" > "Web Credentials". Think about passwords that you use on other accounts that you may have used here. List old passwords you may have used. Check your web browsers to see if you saved a password there.

    Looking forward to your update.

    @Emma1-N

    thanks for you reply and iam sorry for writing that account that revealing-no i don't remember doing the two step verification. or link anything to my account

    -no it is not signed in on other devices. i actullay didn't sign in this account for a long while. i tried to sign in again but it doesn't work and yeah telling me the same problem i mentioned

    -no i don't really. it is just an old personal account i made it originally to be connected to my Xbox account. Just Xbox account. I can't sign in to Microsoft and Xbox because it has the same account

    -I made Microsoft recovery form like 20 times and it just says There is not enough information to recover the account.

    -I did it already. i did everything and put the password but it doesn't work like it got changed by someone. i don't know what happened. but what i remember is that i was signing in with the password i saved. so i just want to reset my password normally. remove and replace what is linked to my account and recover my account. I will make sure it is secured. I appreciate it if you helped me to recover it , and thank you.

    here is a photo from minecraft of my Xbox already logged in account. hopefully still saved!it is just my Xbox username because i can't sign in to my account in Xbox. I hope there is anything else i can provide
