Can't log in to my old account for this site, back when it was for reporting bugs, the account name was BnB, it just says "Anonymous" in place of my username now on the posts I made. Now I have to log in to this new(?) account. is there a way to recover the old one? Screenshot_3-4-2026_165337_learn.microsoft.com

    Old profiles from the previous Microsoft Answers / Support Community platform cannot be migrated or reattached to a new Microsoft Learn / Q&A profile. When content was moved, posts that could not be associated with an active Learn profile were converted to “Anonymous,” and there is no supported way to link that historical content back to a new or existing account.

    A new Microsoft Learn profile is required for participation on the current site, and past posts that now show as “Anonymous” must remain that way.
