Default Password

I cannot remember a password to one of my hotmail email addresses that I
haven't used in awhile... I did not have an alternate email address and I
don't remember the secret answer and question so how do I recover the
password?

Default Password

With great difficulty. You would normally contact Hotmail but, as you do not
know the secret answer how can Hotmail be sure you are the person you say
you are? If you haven't used the account within the last 90 days (not sure
whether it is actually 30 days or 90 days) the account will have been
suspended anyway and all content deleted, so it may be easier to create a
new hotmail account. Alternatively go for something like Gmail. If you need
a Gmail invitation i can easily send you one. Just contact me at the email
address on the contact page of my website http://xphelpandsupport.mvps.org
