Question asked on Feb 10, 2016

I had an old email account that I used to link some social media accounts for my blog to. I never used the email for anything else. This was last year. Now, I want to get into my Twitter account, and I can't retrieve my password because it is linked to my Windows Live account, and I am locked out. I have been asked on multiple times to fill out the form to change passwords, and of course, I don't know any subject lines or folders in the email because it was used for nothing more than social media, and all those emails were sent years ago. I have been trying to remember my password, but I don't remember it and I would really like to access my Live email. The email is *** Email address is removed for privacy ***. The emails being sent to this address were automatically forwarded to a now-defunct email *** Email address is removed for privacy ***. 

This just feels like way too much trouble and I've grown thoroughly annoyed with Live and their tech support (LACK THEREOF). 

Please help me. I want to delete my Twitter account as it has not been used in quite some time, and I can't do that without my email account (I've tried speaking with their terrible service, as well).

Thank you!
