Unfortunately, you can't directly change your recovery number on Hotmail. Recovery numbers are designed to be used in case you lose access to your account, and they are not meant to be changed regularly.
However, if you need to update your recovery number, you have a few options:
- Update your contact information: You can update your phone number and email address associated with your Hotmail account. This will be used to verify your identity and receive recovery codes.
- Create a new Hotmail account: If you cannot access your existing account and need a new recovery number, you can create a new Hotmail account. This will allow you to set up a new recovery number and start fresh.
- Contact Microsoft Support: If you're facing issues with your recovery number or have lost access to your account, you can contact Microsoft Support for assistance. They can help you troubleshoot the issue and may be able to help you update your recovery number.
Remember, it's important to keep your recovery number and other account information secure to prevent unauthorized access to your account.
