Recovering Facebook Login Account in 5 Steps
To recover your Facebook account, you need to have the account verified. That is, the email address or the phone number that you entered while creating your account should be verified when creating the account. Recovering a account without any of these is extremely unreliable. Information about this case is written at the bottom of this page.
Step 1
Click on the recover account option as indicated by the red arrow in the picture below.
Make sure that you have access to the phone number or the email connected to you account.
Step 2
Choose the method of verification suitable to you. In this case, we will choose the email option. But, you can choose the Phone option if it is easier for you. The process is the same for both options.
After you have chose you method, click on Continue to proceed to the next step.
Step 3
Now, enter the code that Facebook sent you to either your phone or your email in the box as shown. If you are using the email option, you can directly change the password through the link sent to the email. As shown in the picture below.
Or, you can choose the conventional way by entering the code in the recovery page like below.
After you have entered the code correctly, Click on Continue.
Step 4
Now enter a new facebook password for your account. Make sure that you use a strong password and something that can be remembered. Complicating things to much might lead to you forgetting the password again.
Click on continue to go to the final step.
Step 5
For security reasons, Facebook will ask you to either log out from all of the devices that you are currently logged in or to stay logged in. If you have suspicions that other people might be using or use your account, choose the log out option. Otherwise just proceed with the default option.
Click on Continue after you have selected your option.
Now, you should be able to login to your Facebook page and use it’s functions.
