Microsoft Outlook拥有数百万用户，因其作为最佳电子邮件服务^{(email service)}提供商之一的声誉而成为全球最常用的电子邮件应用程序之一。^{(email apps)}您可以使用Outlook 帐户^{(Outlook account)}发送和接收来自朋友、家人和业务联系人的电子邮件。建议您使用强密码保护它。但是，如果您忘记了密码，访问您的帐户可能会遇到问题。而且，没有它，您将无法访问您的电子邮件。因此，如果您无法记住密码，请不要担心。今天，我们将讨论如何恢复Outlook 电子邮件和帐户密码^{(Outlook email & account passwords)}。

如何恢复 Outlook 电子邮件密码^{(How to Recover Outlook Email Password)}

当您在网站上输入密码时，它不会以明文形式存储^{(not stored in plaintext)}。该网站会生成您密码的哈希值。^(hash)哈希是一长串字母数字字符，代表与您的登录相对应的密码。数据库对您的用户名和密码组合^{(username and password combination)}做出积极响应，您就可以登录到您的帐户。然而，当黑客试图访问数据库时，他们所看到的只是一长串令人费解的哈希值。

坏消息是每个 CRC32 散列包含很多匹配值^{(each CRC32 hash contains a lot of matching values)}，这意味着您的文件很有可能会被密码恢复应用程序^{(password recovery application)}解锁。如果您需要解锁PST 文件^{(PST file)}，这可能很棒，但它可能无法保证您的数据安全。

Outlook PST 和 OST 文件^{(Outlook PST & OST Files)}

您使用的帐户类型决定了Outlook如何保存、管理和保护您的数据。Outlook 数据^{(Outlook data)}文件分为两类：

PST： Outlook 采用个人存储表^{(Personal Storage Table)}( PST )，它是POP 和 IMAP 帐户的^{(or POP and IMAP accounts)}存储机制^{(storage mechanism f)}。

• 您的电子邮件被传送到并存储在邮件服务器上^{(stored on the mail server)}，您可以在线访问它^{(access it online)}。
• 您可以处理Outlook 电子邮件^{(Outlook email)}的备份，但这会产生一个新的 PST 文件^{(new PST file)}。
• 当您切换计算机时， PST文件很容易^{(files readily migrate)}从一台计算机迁移到另一台计算机。 
• 这些将重要信息保存在本地系统上，例如密码^(passwords)。此密码可防止未经授权的个人访问Outlook 帐户^{(Outlook account)}，从而保护电子邮件和用户数据。

因此，PST 文件^{(PST file)}可用于恢复Outlook 电子邮件^{(Outlook email)}密码。

OST：当您希望保留电子邮件帐户^{(email account)}的整个本地备份时，您可以使用离线存储表^{(Offline Storage Table)}(OST) 文件。

• 您的计算机和邮件服务器^{(mail server)}都会保存所有信息。这意味着无论网络连接如何^{(regardless of network connectivity)}，整个用户帐户数据库都是可用的^{(whole user account database is available)}。
• 同步^{( sync)}发生在用户与邮件服务器建立连接时^{(mail server)}。
• 它不包括任何密码。

要记住的事情^{(Things to Keep in Mind)}

在重置Outlook 密码^{(Outlook password)}之前，请记住以下几点：

• 确保您提供的电子邮件地址^{(email address)}准确无误。
• Caps Lock会相应地关闭或打开。
• 尝试使用其他^(different) Internet 浏览器^{(internet browser)}登录或删除浏览器缓存。
• 删除^(Erase) 存储的密码^{(stored passwords)}作为较早的数据或自动填充可能会导致登录问题。

注意：^(Note:)要使Outlook 密码^{(Outlook password)}恢复方法正常工作，您需要一个验证应用程序^{(verification app)}、一个电话号码^{(phone number)}或一个恢复电子邮件地址^{(recovery email address)}。

方法一：通过微软账户恢复页面^{(Method 1: Through Microsoft Account Recovery Page)}

如果您认为已经或可能发生未经授权的访问，这种方法将被证明是最有益的。您可以直接重置您的Microsoft 帐户^{(Microsoft account)}以恢复对包括MS Outlook 和 Microsoft 商店在内的所有^{(MS Outlook & Microsoft store)}Microsoft服务的访问，如下所述：

1. 要重置您的密码，请转到Microsoft 恢复您的帐户^{(Recover your account)}网页。

2.在电子邮件、电话或 Skype 名称字段中输入您的^{(Email, phone, or Skype name)}Outlook 电子邮件地址^{(Outlook email address)}，然后单击下一步^(Next)。

3. 选择电子邮件^(Email)选项作为对您希望如何获得您的安全代码的回应？
^{(How would you like to get your security code? )}

注意：^(Note:)如果您已经关联了您的电话号码，您将获得另一个通过^{(phone number)}电话号码^{(phone number)}验证您的身份的选项。您可以在方便时选择任何一个选项。

4. 输入您的电子邮件地址^{(email address)}并点击获取代码^{(Get code)}，如图所示。

5. 之后，您将在您输入的电子邮件地址中获得一个^{(email address)}验证码。^{(verification code)}

6. 现在，输入收到的验证码并点击^{(verification code)}登录。^{(Sign in.)}

7. 创建一个至少包含 8 个字符的新密码^{(New password)}。重新输入密码^{(Re-enter Password)}并单击Next，如图所示。

注意：^{(Note: )}请记住^(Remember)根据需要打开/关闭大写锁定。

How to Recover Outlook Password

With millions of users, Microsoft Outlook is one of the mоst commonly used emaіl apps on the globe due to its reрutation of being one of the best emaіl service providers. You may send and receive emаils from friendѕ, family, and business contacts uѕing your Outlook account. It is suggested that you safeguard it with a strong password. Hоweνer, уou might facе problems accessing your account if you forget your pаssword. And, you would not be able to access yоur emails without it. So, if you are unable to rеmember your password, then do not worry. Today, we will discuss how to recoνer Outlook emaіl & account passwоrds.

How to Recover Outlook Email Password

When you input a password on a website, it is not stored in plaintext. The website generates a hash of your password. A hash is a long string of alphanumeric characters that represent your password corresponding to your login. The database responds positively to your username and password combination, and you are able to log in to your account. However, when a hacker tries to access the database, all they see is a lengthy list of puzzling hash values.

The bad news is that each CRC32 hash contains a lot of matching values, which means there is a good probability your file will be unlocked by a password recovery application. This could be fantastic if you need to unlock your PST file, but it might not keep your data safe.

Outlook PST & OST Files

The kind of account you use determines how Outlook saves, manages, and secures your data. Outlook data files are divided into two categories:

PST: Outlook employs a Personal Storage Table (PST) which is a storage mechanism for POP and IMAP accounts.

• Your email is delivered to and stored on the mail server, and you may access it online.
• You can work on backups of your Outlook email, but this will result in a new PST file.
• PST files readily migrate from one computer to another when you switch computers. 
• These save important information on the local system, such as passwords. This password prevents unauthorized individuals from accessing the Outlook account, safeguarding emails and user data.

As a result, the PST file is available to recover Outlook email passwords.

OST: When you wish to preserve a whole local backup of an email account, you may utilize an Offline Storage Table (OST) file.

• Both your computer and the mail server will save all the information. This implies that regardless of network connectivity, the whole user account database is available.
• The sync takes place when the user establishes a connection with the mail server.
• It does not include any passwords.

Things to Keep in Mind

Before you reset your Outlook password, keep the following points in mind:

• Make sure the email address you provided is accurate.
• Caps Lock is turned off or on accordingly.
• Try signing in with a different internet browser or delete browser cache.
• Erase stored passwords as earlier data or autofill might cause login issues.

Note: To make the Outlook password recovery methods work, you will need a verification app, a phone number, or a recovery email address.

Method 1: Through Microsoft Account Recovery Page

4. Enter your email address and click on Get code, as shown.

5. Following that, you will get a verification code in the email address you entered.

6. Now, enter the verification code received and click on Sign in.
