How Do I Recover My Minecraft Account?

It is possible to recover your Minecraft account if you forgot your password or suspect that it has been hacked. There are two different accounts; Minecraft accounts and Mojang accounts. If you created your account after Fall 2012, it is now located on a Mojang account. Older Minecraft accounts have not yet been migrated. You can log into them using your original username.

Recovering Your Account after Forgetting Your Password

If you forgot your Minecraft account, you can reset it by logging in using your username. Click on the option 'Forgot Password.'

If you do not remember the email address associated with your account, you may need to reset your password. When you do, an email will be sent to your email address. This will make it easy for you to remember the email address that you used. If you own more than one email addresses, you should try every one of them until you find the one that works.

If you have a Minecraft account that you need to migrate, you must change your email address. If you already have a Mojang account that has your new email address, log into the account and import your existing username.

If you do not have a Mojang account yet, you should consider migrating directly from the account. A Mojang account with your new email address will be created.

You should receive a password reset email as soon as you attempt to change your password. If you do not receive it, there may be a problem.

There are a few reasons why you may not receive the reset email. Some of them include the following;

1. It is In Your Spam Folder

Always check your junk/spam folder before concluding that you did not receive your password reset email.

2. Your Email Address is Not Verified

If you have not verified your email address, you may not receive the password reset email. Once you are verified, you can request for another one.

3. There is a Typing Error in Your Email

If you make a typo when entering the email address, your email will not be delivered. A simple yet common error is typing .cmo instead of .com. always check to ensure that you are sending your email to the right address.

4. You Marked Mojang Emails as Spam

If you previously marked Mojang emails as spam, you may not receive emails from them.

5. Your Email Account Was Closed

If your email account was previously closed, you may not receive the password reset email. You may request it to be sent again.

6. If You Migrated to Your Mojang Account Using a Different Email Address

If you previously logged into your account with a username, you may be asked to use your email address if that fails, you may need to contact the customer support team for help. If your account was migrated to a different email address, you may request them to change it back to your original. With a transaction ID, you can change the email address to something different.

If You Forgot Your Username but Remember Your Email Address

If you remember your email address but not your username, there is no need to worry. Your username will appear in-game and on your account page.
