How to Recover your Linkedin Account

Use this interactive demo to learn how to regain access to your locked-out LinkedIn account.

Quick summary

This demo walks you through the LinkedIn account recovery process step by step, from clicking Forgot password to verifying your identity via OTP, email link, or QR code. Whether you've lost access to your email or just need to reset your credentials, LinkedIn provides multiple fallback options to restore account access securely.


Steps

  1. Go to the LinkedIn sign-in page and click 'Forgot password'.
  2. Enter your recovery method (email or phone number) and click 'Next'.
  3. Complete the security check to verify you're not a bot.
  4. Enter the verification message, link, or OTP sent to your chosen recovery method and click 'Submit'.
  5. If you can't access your email, click the 'Can't access email' option at the bottom of the dialog box.
  6. Scan the QR code and follow the on-screen steps until you successfully recover your account.

📌 Why this matters

Recovering a LinkedIn account quickly is critical for professionals who rely on the platform for networking, job searching, and brand visibility. LinkedIn's multi-step account recovery process — including password reset, OTP verification, and QR code fallback — ensures users can regain access even without their primary email. Understanding each step reduces downtime and prevents permanent loss of a professional profile. This demo provides a clear, guided walkthrough so users can confidently navigate the LinkedIn account recovery flow without confusion.
