    Hi,

    This is a forum mostly managed by non-Microsoft staff so you can share your issue with us and we would try to help you out.

    1. What exactly is the issue?
    2. Is there adequate storage on the account?

    I look forward to hearing from you to get the results of the troubleshooting.

    For Outlook.com, the supported way to reach a live person is through Microsoft Support chat or callback options.

    If access to Outlook.com is available:

    1. Open Outlook.com.
    2. Select Help on the menu bar and enter the issue.
    3. If self-help does not resolve it, scroll to Still need help? and select Yes.
    4. To contact support in Outlook.com, sign-in is required.

    If sign-in is not possible:

    • Use the Microsoft Support contact flow.
    • In Windows, open Get Help.
    • Type Chat with an agent.
    • Select Contact support.
    • Choose the product and service related to the email account issue.
    • Follow the prompts to connect with a live agent or request a callback if that option is offered.

    Another supported path is the Microsoft Support contact page flow:

    • Go to Contact - Microsoft Support.
    • Enter a short description such as Account Recovery.
    • Select Get Help.
    • Scroll down and choose Contact Support.
    • For personal account issues, select Other Products.
    • Then select Manage account security or Billing and Account Profile questions, depending on the issue shown.
    • Choose Chat with a support agent in your web browser if available.

    For Outlook.com-specific help, the Community forum is also available if live support is not immediately available.
