When i go to log into microsoft it says my email does not have an account, I have now found out my account is owned by another email. My recovery accounts, my phone number and my password have been changed. I do have the name of email that has compromised my account if that is needed.

    I wish I had better news, but when a Microsoft account is hacked, if the hackers change the associated data like the Email, then that account is usually no longer recoverable, this forum is just a user to user account and no-one here has any account access, try using the process they provide on this link to recover a hacked account, if this process is not successful, sadly, that account cannot be recovered.
