I keep getting the “You didn’t provide enough info for Google to be sure this account is really yours. Google asks for this info to keep your account secure. If possible, try again and use a device where you’ve signed in before.” when I say I forgot my password. Even using my old phone, I only can access it through my mails app which doesn’t tell me the current password.

Surely there must be a way to find or reset the password since I still can access the emails from my account. Any advice is much appreciated!

Hi everyone,

I use a PC for my Gmail. I haven't signed out in years. Earlier this evening I had accidentally signed out and I can't remember my password to log back in.

I tried to do the account recovery but it's not helping. Reason: I no longer have the phone number I used on that email address, so I can't get the code they would normally send me.

Also, I'm unable to sign into my recovery email because it's a very old one that I haven't used in a long time. It took several tries for me to get my recovery email password right, but by that time, outlook had notice my previous attempts at logging in as suspicious and made me answer a bunch of questions to verify that it's me. Well, I failed that because I can't remember email addresses I sent mail to from years ago, along with the subject of recent emails that they ask for.

Is there any other way for me to try to recover my gmail password without my old phone number and recovery email?

It's so frustrating because I thought I had written down my password, but when I checked, it was for a different email address.

Any help greatly appreciated!

Thanks
