Microsoft locked my hotmail saying unusual activity. It wants to text a code to my phone but nothing comes through. It's been days now and all my bills go to that inbox.

Got locked out after a suspicious sign-in warning. The unlock page wants a code sent to an old phone number I no longer have, and the recovery form just errors at the end. Any way through this?

Got locked out for suspicious activity and was told to wait. It's been two weeks and it still shows the same lock screen. Does the timer reset if you keep trying?

Every recovery attempt fails and it's been about three months now. I've tried from my usual laptop, on home wifi, answering everything I can. All my tax documents and a few years of scanned receipts are in Drive. Is there any route for getting files out, even without full access to the account?
