Nice to meet you, *****!
Would you be so kind to tell me more about that issue?

Customer Replay

I tried to sign in and said I needed WiFi even though I was connected so solution were restart the console or remove and re Add and that's when I forgot my account
I know its ***** numbers and @outlook.com

Do you remember the name of the email address that is connected to your account?

Go to Reset your password and enter your email address --> https://account.live.com/password/reset
Tell Xbox where you’d like us to send a security code (email or phone number).

Customer Replay

I found my account it was *****@outlook.com
