    My Microsoft account got stolen so how can I make sure no one can access it.


    I was playing Minecraft when a person told me to join this discord server to play with him. I saw that there were 12k people and 2k people online, so I thought it was safe and entered my Microsoft account and password to verify. The second I entered, I got kicked from the game and was stolen all of my things. I just want to make sure that the hacker can’t access my Microsoft account, and so that he can’t do anything.

    :)

    Laptop was stolen, how do I remove acces to my Microsoft account?


    Sign into your Microsoft account. There should be a "devices" tab towards the right. Open that tab and remove the device from the list. Also, change your Microsoft account password as recomended.

    2. Select Settings and click on Choose what to clear.
    3. Check the boxes Browsing history, Cookies and saved website data and Cached data and files and click on Clear.

    3. Select add someone else on this PC.
    4. Enter a user name and hit next.

    Step 3:
    It could also happen because of network issue. I suggest you to try with different network connection and check if it helps.
