    Hey there! Nice to meet you!

    Since you mentioned to the AI above that you still have access to your hacked account, you will need to update the verification method on account.microsoft.com > Security > Manage how I Sign in > then add your email/phone number as your verification method.

    Once you're done, you will need to wait for the 30-day restriction state to complete; but, if the hacker has their email/phone number added to your account, having them in full control over your account, they can simply cancel your security info change request.

    If this happens, you will need to try requesting again, and hopefully, the hacker will not notice.

    Unfortunately, it is also not possible to expedite or bypass the 30-day restriction state.

    However, if the 30-day restriction state is complete, you will be able to remove the hacker's security info email/phone number from your account using your newly added security info.

    Lastly, please be advised that Microsoft Support will not be able to assist you with manual recovery, unblock, and escalation for this case, as stated in this article, that they are not permitted to send password resets, access, or even change any details on the account:

    Thank you for your understanding! Please let me know if you need anything else.

    Best regards,

    For a hacked Microsoft account where sign-in is not possible, only the official automated recovery and support channels can help. Follow these steps:

    1. Use the Microsoft account sign-in helper for hacked accounts
      • Go to the Microsoft account sign-in helper: Start.
      • Enter the email address or phone number of the hacked Microsoft account.
      • The tool will either:
        • Show self-help options for hacked/compromised accounts, or
        • Offer a path to contact support (chat) based on the situation.
    2. Use the Microsoft Account Recovery form (if you cannot sign in)
      • If the account is not recognized or is locked, use the account recovery form at https://account.live.com/acsr (from the referenced guidance).
      • Enter the hacked Microsoft email as the account to recover and a different, working email (such as the public Gmail address) as the contact address.
      • Provide as many accurate details as possible (old passwords, contacts, subject lines, etc.) and submit from a device and location normally used with that account.
    3. If the account is locked or shows no “Next” button
      • If sign-in shows no Next option and indicates the account is locked, follow the aka.ms/ link shown in that window.
      • Complete the reinstatement form. A Microsoft Online Safety agent will review it and respond by email. Do not submit multiple forms in parallel, as this can slow the response.
    4. Get to a live support agent (chat)
      • If recovery fails or errors occur, use official support to reach a human agent:
      • If Outlook.com is involved and sign-in is still possible in a browser session, open Outlook.com, select Help on the menu bar, enter the problem, then scroll to Still need help? and choose Yes to reach chat support.
    5. If the account is an Outlook.com/Hotmail account
    6. Strengthen security once access is restored
      • Sign in to Advanced security options for the Microsoft account.
      • Add another way to sign in or verify (additional email or phone) via Add a new way to sign in or verify.
      • Ensure all security info (phone numbers, alternate emails) is current.
      • Avoid staying signed in on public or shared devices and sign out everywhere if a device is lost or compromised using the guidance in How to sign out everywhere.

    Only the official automated recovery and support workflows can change or restore hacked consumer Microsoft accounts; forum users and community responders cannot directly access or modify accounts.
