How to shut down an email hotmail.com

I think there may be some confusion here!

Hotmail is an email service provided by Microsoft, and it's not possible to "shut down" an email account. Instead, you can close or delete your Hotmail account if you no longer want to use it.

Here are the steps to close or delete your Hotmail account:

Closing your Hotmail account:

  1. Sign in to your Hotmail account.
  2. Click on the gear icon () in the top right corner of the page.
  3. Select "Settings" from the dropdown menu.
  4. Scroll down to the "Account" section and click on "Account actions".
  5. Click on "Close account" and follow the prompts to confirm.

Deleting your Hotmail account:

  1. Sign in to your Hotmail account.
  2. Click on the gear icon () in the top right corner of the page.
  3. Select "Settings" from the dropdown menu.
  4. Scroll down to the "Account" section and click on "Account actions".
  5. Click on "Delete account" and follow the prompts to confirm.

Please note that deleting your Hotmail account will also delete all your emails, contacts, and other data associated with the account. If you're sure you want to delete your account, make sure to back up any important emails or data you want to keep before proceeding.

If you're having trouble accessing your Hotmail account or need help with the process, you can contact Microsoft support for assistance.
