Windows 10: Good morning, It looks as though I have accidentally deleted a main hotmail alias account....

I’m really hoping there is a way to get this email back. Any help would be appreciated. Thank you

:)

 

Deleting hotmail accounts?

Hi ! Is there any way even tricky to fully delete older hotmail accounts?

 

Deleting hotmail accounts?

I think it'll just get put down as avaliable so another person can create an account with that name. At least I think that was how it used to work. I have a Hotmail account that I use about once a year (don't have any Live stuff connected to it either) or so and it has never been removed. But I think I could create a new account with the same name and it would be avaliable.

I think.

EDIT: No, I cannot create a new account with the same name. It was at least six months ago I used it last time.

 

Very old Hotmail account

You can verify whether your hotmail is still alive in MS account, it should be listed as an alias.

If there isn't one you should be able to know whether you still receive email from hotmail into outlook inbox?
Or at least log in to some site registered with your hotmail email. and then see if you can verify you email and watching for inbox in outlook.
