Hello,

Back in 2012, I had deleted my email address (hotmail) but after some time I had accessed that email address to change profile details, password
and delete unwanted emails.
BUT
I forgot to permanently delete that account again.
I believe it has been a year since I last logged in...  I cannot remember anything of that account since I changed the information to things I normally wouldn't have.
but for some reason the account is still active. I had previously created a post on Microsoft answers but I did not get any helpful feedback.
How can it be active if I never signed in again? Or can it be labelled active if I continuously attempt to login?
The email account I wanted deleted is "Removed for security purposes".
There is a lot of things on that account that like important school documentation.

It worries me because I fear someone has hacked it and gained control over it which is why its active.
I can say for certain that I had not successfully logged into that account for the 270 day period.

I really want this email address deleted please. I will provide details to the microsoft help agent.

Please help me.

Thank you
