    Hi ,

    I'm Dyari. Thanks for reaching out. I will be happy to assist you in this regard.

    If your account has been hacked, use the sign-in helper tool below to help guide you to the right solutions.

    If the sign in helper tool and none of the provided steps by the Q&A Assist do not help, please fill out the recovery form, but it may take time to get a response.

    If your husband's Hotmail account has been hacked and he is unable to access it, here are some steps you can take to regain access:

    1. Reset the Password: Go to the Microsoft account password reset page and follow the instructions to reset the password. He will need to provide information to verify his identity.
    2. Check for Recovery Options: If he has set up recovery options (like a phone number or an alternate email), he can use those to receive a verification code to reset his password.
    3. Contact Microsoft Support: If he cannot reset the password through the usual methods, contacting Microsoft support may be necessary. They can assist in recovering the account.
    4. Secure the Account: Once access is regained, it's important to secure the account by enabling multifactor authentication (MFA) and updating security questions.
    5. Monitor for Suspicious Activity: After regaining access, he should monitor the account for any suspicious activity and change passwords for any other accounts that may have been linked to the compromised email.

    If he is part of an organization, contacting the IT department may also provide additional support.
