To get started, head to g.co/recover and enter your Gmail address. If possible, try the following to make recovery easier: Use a computer, phone, or tablet you've previously used to sign into your account. Use the same browser that you usually do, like Chrome or Safari.

Google Accounts are usually disabled if the account's owner hasn't followed our Terms or Service or other products' policies. When your Google Account is disabled, you won't be able to sign in to Google services or use Sign in with Google. You'll get an error message instead, or be directed to this help article.

On your computer, go to Gmail. Enter your Google Account email or phone number and password. If information is already filled in and you have to sign in to a different account, click Use another account. If you get a page that describes Gmail instead of the sign-in page, at the top right of the page, click Sign in.
