How Do I Remove a Recovery Email from Yahoo?

Published in Account Recovery 1 min read

You can't directly remove a recovery email from your Yahoo account. However, you can update it to a new email address. Here's how:

  1. Log in to your Yahoo account.
  2. Go to your account settings. You can find this by clicking on your profile picture or username in the top right corner.
  3. Click on "Account Security."
  4. Locate the "Recovery Email" section.
  5. Click on "Edit."
  6. Enter your new recovery email address.
  7. Confirm your new email address. You will receive a verification email.
  8. Click on the verification link in the email.

Once you have verified your new recovery email address, the old one will no longer be associated with your account.

Note: If you've forgotten your password and don't have access to your current recovery email, you can use Yahoo's account recovery process to reset your password. This process will typically involve answering security questions or providing additional information to verify your identity.
