To reset your Microsoft account password:

• Go to the “Forgot password?” page and enter your username. (Or go directly to Reset password and enter the username name again for the account you’re trying to reset and select “Next“).
• Verify your identity using one of the available options or the account recovery process if no options are available.

How to verify your identity depends if you previously added security info to your account and if you can still access them. Select from the two options below.

• Get a verification code and enter it on the next page.
  Type in a new password and select “Next“.
• If you’re unable to reset your password, try the solutions listed in step 2. If those don’t work, proceed to the account recovery process. Make sure to set a reminder to verify or update your security contact information.

If you successfully reset your password, now is a good time to set a reminder to verify your security contact info, or make changes to it. See Security best practices for more info.
