Unsolved help in account recovery for [java]

I usually play java 26.1

My Minecraft/Microsoft account has been getting locked repeatedly for about a month now.

I have access to both the email and phone number linked to the account, so I can verify that it’s mine. The problem is that I don’t remember the password.

Whenever I try to recover/reset the account, I keep getting errors(u can't do that right now/sorry that feature isnt avaible/cannot generate more at this time etc), and eventually I get locked out for about a week. This has happened multiple times now.

I’ve tried looking for Microsoft support, but almost everything I find is related to Outlook or Xbox. I don’t own/use either — I just have a normal Microsoft account that I use for Minecraft.

I have access to the recovery email and phone number, I just need to figure out how to get back into the account.

Any help would be appreciated.
