Retrieving A Lost Outlook Password

Microsoft Outlook is an email client program that allows users to send and receive emails with the help of an online server. This is usually a service offered by your Internet Service Provider (ISP). The users can make use of the ISP email account password to allow the Outlook program to log into the ISP email server for sending and receiving email messages. The Outlook client saves your password to establish the connection with the server but it will not be able to provide you the password in case you forget the password. The Outlook help desk tips explained below will help you to retrieve the lost password of Outlook.
