How to update your alternate email address for resetting your password.

To update your alternate email address complete the following steps:

  1. Log into your account at https://myaccount.microsoft.com/ and navigate to the security info page.
  2. On that security info page, click change next to the email currently listed.
  3. Enter the new email address you would like to use. 
  4. Enter the verification code that was sent to that email to verify it.  

If you cannot log in and you don't have access to the alternative email already listed, you must either come into the helpdesk located in 109 Sorensen Hall or proof your identity over a video call with us.
