    hmmm, if you have updated a secondary email, then you can request for a new one via that

    if you remember your security question answer than you will get your password and another way is that if you remember your recovery email or alternative id than you will get your password

    If you know the security question then you can recover your password.

    I think it is difficult to retrieve your password, if you have forgotten your secondary email Id as well as security question answer. Any how, make a try to call Y! toll free number.

    i lost my yahoo account a month ago! I did remember my password, but couldn't login in my account anymore. While i didn't remember the security question answer, and didn't set up the secondary email, i couldn't contact yahoo. It meant i could't access my account forever! i hated it, and wanted my email account back cuz it's so important for me, but nothing i can't do T_T
    after that, i don't use yahoo email

    Yahoo really sucks on it. I have a yahoo email account 6 months ago. I had been using that account from 5 years. Then I dont know what happened and I was unable to access my account. I tried to recover my password but it also didn't work. I tried to contact to Yahoo support. But no body replied. Then after many attempts i have stopped trying. Now few days back I tried to create a login and use the same email id as I had before and amazed it created. :) I really didn't know what happened. But now i have got my previous email id. But that was really irritating. Thats why I have quit using Yahoo for my official use.

    u can get the password through security question and password will come in your second email address which you mention in your yahoo mail format.

    I agree with "rainsoO" :p Register a new account. Because neither security question nor an email recovery works as i have experienced that..

    As you have forgotten the password, it simply proves that you haven't accessed the mail for a long time. Hence the importance of that mail id simply goes downwards. You should try to recover it through answering Password Hint Question if you do remember. And if you have forgotten the Password Hint Questions too, I would like to advice you for a new email account.

    Please do not misslead people here.

    And kindly do not encourage people to download crap virus files missleading them as password recovery software.
