Locked Out with No Email
-
I want to get into an old account I have not used in about ten years. I have the login and password but WordPress is saying I have been locked out for “security reasons” and need to reset my password. WordPress wants to send me a new password using the email I originally registered with, but that address is no longer active. Is there a way around this (ie, some way to change the email address on file without logging in, or an alternative way of resetting a password)?
PS: To just post in this forum, I had to create a new WordPress account.
The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

Hi there,
We are not able to help here in the support forums, as verifying account ownership requires us to ask you to provide info that is best not shared in this public venue.
With this in mind, please fill out this form here to the best of your ability: https://wordpress.com/wp-login.php?action=recovery
This will send all the info you have to our account recovery team, and from there they will contact you directly to assist you in regaining access to the account that owns the site you are trying to access.
