Locked out of gmail..am I screwed? | |
Anonymous Coward User ID: 76735334 United States 08/09/2019 08:09 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | Does anyone know how to restore access to a Google/gmail account that I don't remember the password to, dont know when I created it, and no longer have the same phone number as the one registered to the account? Quoting: Reighna1 I have all factors working against me. I haven't been able to manually enter the account since 2013. However because the account is linked in with a different email, (i think using pop) I'm still intermittently receiving my Gmail emails...proving I am the owner Id like to access my actual account and Google Drive, and I'm screwed unless I can restore my password.. Does anyone know if this is possible? Yes you just said the pop account has the password. So use an password recovery tool on the pop account. |

(OP) User ID: 72823660 United States 08/09/2019 08:20 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | Forgive me for asking a probably dumb question but I don't really understand how all of this works. My Gmail is connected to my yahoo. When I've looked through my yahoo account settings, I've not been able to find anything about having the account linked. (However it is linked because I'm still receiving my Gmail messages ( If I use a password restore app, won't it just give me my yahoo account password? I'm not good with technology :( Does anyone know how to restore access to a Google/gmail account that I don't remember the password to, dont know when I created it, and no longer have the same phone number as the one registered to the account?

MS-Outlook (most versions of MS-Office) Windows Mail (Vista) Outlook Express(Win XP) ThunderBird (Mozilla) a POP client would have the PW Forwarding doesn't use the PW to the account forwarded from if you don't know your SQ answers or PW then you're locked out forever oh hai! |
