Forgot Hotmail password? Reset it!

One of the most common causes of the Hotmail login problem is the loss of password. So if you've forgotten this vital piece of information, follow the simple step by step instructions below to reset it and get access to your Hotmail email account.

"Forgot your password" link at the Hotmail login page

In the Hotmail sign in section, just below the login fields, is a "Forgot your password?". Click it to start the process of resetting the account password.

You'll come to the Reset your password screen - below. Enter your Windows Live ID (the full email address) followed by the wavy characters shown in the image (CAPTCHA) and then click the "Continue" button.

Why do you need to enter the alphabet and numbers in the image? To prove to Hotmail that you are a human. The point is, wavy text can be read and understood by humans but will pose problems for automated programs. "Bad guys" create such programs to gain access or change passwords of email accounts. By the way, if you can't decipher the characters shown, click on the button with two arrows to refresh the image and get another set. The visually impaired should use the button with the speaker image to hear an audio clip.

The Hotmail technical support phone number: is it worth using?

The number is managed and answered by the trained executives of Microsoft’s customer support cell. These executives are well experienced and possess full knowledge related to technical support of all services of Microsoft which also includes outlook (Hotmail). The number is also a customer support toll free number. So, in simpler words, when you make the call, you can inquire about any problem from your Hotmail account and you will not be charged for the call either. The distinct feature of Microsoft helpline numbers is actually an advantage to the users and it is that for different locations, there is no one number. In other words, Microsoft has divided the globe in different regions and allotted these regions different numbers to make helpline service easy and better accessible for the users. So, if you are living in Middle East, you will need to dial a different number than the users who are living in south Asia. Any confusions about the numbers’ validity for separate areas can be checked from the helpline number information list of Microsoft which is available at the latter’s official website’s contact page.

Given the efforts Microsoft has made to make helpline service quick and easy for the users, it is indeed worth using. But the only disadvantage is that users who have got no time for the research would not find the above-mentioned method so useful.
