    Hey there! Nice to meet you!

    You can try using the username lookup from this link: https://support.microsoft.com/account-billing/forgotten-your-microsoft-account-username-b2049472-3b8f-27d3-61c6-67a668453f4c

    Please be advised that the system can only show you a hint of the username once you have provided the verification codes through the account's security verification methods.

    If you aren't able to locate your username, please try finding your Microsoft account username in other products or services associated with that account through this link.

    Thank you for your understanding.

    Best regards,

    Darhyl
