    Unfortunately, there is nothing that can be done to recover the account once the hacker has successfully replaced the security information.

    Moving forward, please check this link for more information on how to secure your account and to prevent hacking incidents:

    Hey there. Nice to meet you.

    Based on your description, your Microsoft account was compromised. The hacker was able to remove the account's primary email address/security info and replace it with their own email address.

    Since the security info has been replaced by the hacker, I'm afraid there is no other working method to recover the Microsoft account, and Microsoft Support cannot help either.

    Thank you for your understanding.

    Best regards,

    Darhyl
