How can I restore my VKontakte page myself if I have forgotten my login and password? VKontakte is blocked - the page was hacked (solution to the problem) Why is this needed?

How to restore a page in contact? The topic is quite extensive, so we will try to answer it step by step.

If you previously independently deleted access to your page, then the system gives you up to 7 months to think about getting your own account back.

Otherwise, it will be permanently deleted and you will have to create a new one.

It is also worth noting that restoration is a free process.

Therefore, do not fall for any kind of SMS to a short number, paid transactions and other phishing manipulations in order to extract as much non-cash money from you as possible.

Access process

In order to begin the process of returning access, go to the site by entering your username and password. The first one can be either an email address or a phone number.

Both options are interchangeable, so they work equally well.

You will see the famous “dead dog”, above which the end date for the possible restoration of your account will be written.

The “restore page” field is highlighted as a link, click on it.

A page will open where you will need to once again confirm your good intentions.

Restoring a blocked page

What if your page was actually blocked by the administration or you completely and irrevocably forgot your authorization password?

To begin with, don’t panic and don’t make unnecessary movements – it’s not all that scary.

There may be several reasons:

  • blocking;
  • spam on “your” behalf;
  • breaking into;
  • Forgot your password.

Take advantage of the free restoration of control located at the link http://vk.com/restore.

Based on the information in the screenshot, you must enter either your login, phone number, or email address to which you registered.

Then we move on to the next step.

The system now asks you to enter your last name. Remember that the moderator may reject various “Crazy”, “Star”, “Beauty” and other non-surnames, so be prepared for this.

The system will offer you a page found that most likely meets your requirements.

You are only required to confirm or refute this information.

The final stage of the procedure is an SMS message to the number associated with the page.

Remember that the procedure will not require any monetary “charitable” contributions from you from the VK service.

If you do not have the required SIM card, or the code does not want to be received, click on the appropriate link below.

Note! The recovery process often takes up to several hours, or even days. This is either due to the workload of operators who process links manually, or unreliable data from your page, which may arouse suspicion among the administration. In any case, you need to be patient and wait your turn.

If for some reason you cannot access the old page, you will most likely have to create a new one, no matter how much you might like it.

But if you need an old nosebleed, try complaining directly to support at

  • page freeze. As a rule, this happens in the case of sending spam or using programs associated with the so-called cheating;
  • the page was hacked. That is, an unauthorized person gained access to your account by guessing a password, spreading a virus, or in any other way;
  • The account was previously deleted. It is worth noting that this is one of the simplest problems that may arise when it is necessary to restore a VK page;
  • There are some problems with logging in. In this case, there are usually problems with linking a phone number or e-mail address, as well as losing a password.

Freeze page

If your page is frozen for the first time, then there is no need to worry, since you will be able to resume activity almost immediately.

Important! The more bans you have, the longer each of them lasts.

What do you need to unfreeze your account?


The page has been hacked

It is worth understanding that the account will be blocked by the administration if spam is sent from it. If someone simply knows your username and password and periodically visits your page, the system has very little chance of tracking down the fraud.

How to restore a page after it has been hacked?


Important! The phone number must be entered in full: “+” and the country code cannot be omitted.

The account was previously deleted

If you deleted the page yourself for some reason, then if you try to access it again, a window will appear in front of you notifying you that the page has been deleted. The date until which you have the right to freely restore your page will also be indicated.

Important! If the account was deleted more than seven months ago, the possibilities of restoring it in this way are exhausted.

How to restore a page after self-deletion in this case?


On a note! Such restoration will take quite a lot of time than that which takes place within seven months after removal. When restoring the page after seven months, the site will request information confirming your identity, namely: a page with a photo from a document confirming your identity; photo against the background of the monitor, where you can see the question for technical support.

Login problems

When entering your login and password, you must enter a specific VKontakte page. Otherwise, there is an error when entering this information.

But suppose you sent a request for recovery, entered the attached login and password, but even after that nothing happens.

Important! The solution to the problem is quite unusual, but it is still worth knowing about: you need to submit a second application for restoration. In most cases, this procedure can be carried out only after this, and 10% of users receive full rights to the page even after the third application.

This may be to ensure that your intentions regarding recovery are genuine. Or perhaps technical support simply does not have time to process all requests.

In general, restoring an old VK page, regardless of how you delete it, is not difficult. The main thing is patience and willingness to follow instructions.

Content

Having accidentally closed a tab in the browser, the first thought that comes to mind is how to open it back. Program developers have provided several options for solving this problem. Thanks to which any user, even not the most advanced one, can easily open a closed tab.

How to open the last closed tab

There are several ways to restore a tab in the browser, all of them are guaranteed to return a page that was accidentally closed:

  1. Simultaneously hold down the Ctrl + Shift + T keys. To correctly type this combination, first press the Ctrl button on the keyboard, then, without releasing its Shift key, and the English letter T (Russian E). By repeating the combination, you can return the last few pages from the hierarchy.
  2. Alt + Left Arrow Keyboard Shortcut
  3. Instead of keyboard shortcuts, you can use the right mouse button (RMB): move the cursor to the top of the browser window, right-click, when the context menu opens, select “Open closed tab.”
  4. Each browser has a separate place where all previously viewed pages for different periods of time are stored, it is called the Visit Log or History. The required page may not be in History for two reasons: if it has been cleared, or the page was viewed in incognito mode. Depending on the browser, you can get to the Visit Log in different ways, so below is a different algorithm for each program.

Google Chrome

You can enter the history of the Google Chrome browser using the keyboard shortcut Ctrl + H or through the settings button, which consists of three vertical dots in the upper right corner of the program window. After selecting the “History” item, you will be redirected to a page where all the sites that have been opened recently are collected. The list is sorted by day, hour and minute. To go to a closed tab, click on it with the left mouse button (LMB).

If you cannot find the page you need, use the search provided in the history. It is located at the top with a corresponding magnifying glass icon and a small textbar. Enter a keyword there and click the “Search in History” button. If you don't remember the exact case of the key, you can only write part of the word. In addition to a keyword or phrase, you can search by site name.

Yandex browser

If you were unable to return a closed tab using the hotkey combination Ctrl + Shift + T, then Yandex Browser History will come to the rescue. To quickly go to a section page, you need to hold down the Ctrl + H keys, or you can also click LMB on the button with three horizontal lines, which is located in the upper right corner of the program.

A list of viewed pages sorted by time of visit will appear in a new tab. You can return a closed site manually by finding the desired entry in the list, or use a history search, as was the case with the previous browser. You can also search by keywords and the name (part of the name) of the site.

Opera

All previously visited and accidentally closed tabs are stored in the Opera browser history. You can go there by clicking the “Menu” button in the upper left corner of the program window. To go to the desired site, click LMB on the corresponding line in the list. The developers of the Opera browser also provide a history search. To do this, you need to enter a keyword in the textbar with the inscription “Search in history.”

Previously closed pages in the Mozilla Firefox browser can be returned through the log. To do this, in the program window you need to click on the icon of three horizontal lines, then select “Library” and “Journal”. A list of tabs that have been recently closed will appear on the screen. To return to any of them, you just need to left-click on the line with the desired site. To view all recently closed tabs, click "Show all history" at the bottom of the list. A list of all addresses will appear on the screen. On the left you can select a specific date, and at the top there is a convenient search for the magazine.


Internet Explorer

In Internet Explorer, to return closed tabs, in addition to the Ctrl + Shift + T hotkeys, the log is also used. It's located under the star button in the top right corner. All previously viewed sites in Internet Explorer are stored there. For user convenience, the tabs are sorted by day. The order can be changed; to do this, you can select a different sorting in the top drop-down list.

Restoring tabs after restarting the computer

Often the entire current session is lost due to an emergency reboot of the computer. In this case, to restore a closed tab, it is recommended to follow the following algorithm.

You can restore a VK page in different ways, depending on how exactly it was lost (deleted or blocked). Below are step-by-step instructions for recovery in each case. In case they cannot, the article also presents an alternative method. If it doesn’t help you, then be sure to write to us in the comments and we will consider your problem personally.

What to do if your profile is deleted

If you deleted your VK page, you can restore it within 7 months. You don’t need to pay any money for restoration - if you see such a request on the page, then know that this is a scam.

Check your system for viruses to get rid of notifications that your profile is locked and you need to pay to unlock it.

To restore your VK page:

After clicking the “Restore” button again, you can fully use your VK account again - all friends, messages, posts and other information from the page will remain intact.

What to do if your account is blocked

If the VK page was not just deleted, but blocked for sending spam or other suspicious activity, then you can restore it using a special form.


The service will automatically find a page that meets your specified requirements. If the correct account is found, click “Yes, this is the right page” to regain access to the profile. A message with a code will be sent to the number associated with your profile. Enter it and click “Change Password”. If you do not have access to the phone or the message does not arrive, then click on the “Click here” link.

A small three-point questionnaire will appear - if you fill it out, you can return your page by linking it to another phone number. You need:

  1. Specify another number to which the VK account will be linked.
  2. Write the login you used to access your page before (number or email address).
  3. Enter your old password (you can leave this field blank).

Account recovery is only possible if your profile contains your photos. It is difficult to return anonymous pages without photos, even if you provide complete information about the old password and login.

If a profile is blocked for violating the site rules, then the blocking information will indicate the specific reason and expiration date of the ban. You cannot regain access to the page before this period expires.. If you did not violate the rules (your page was hacked and used by third parties), then report this to the support service - the procedure for contacting will be discussed in detail below.

What to do if your login and password are lost

The form described above will allow you to restore your VK page if you have forgotten your login and password. This is a fairly common problem among users, so the VKontakte administration has made the procedure as simple as possible, but safe - you can only restore your page, you cannot gain access to someone else’s account.


The page has been found, but to restore it you will have to send a request, in which you must indicate the old number, the available number, and the password for the account. If your profile contains your photos, then you can do without a password, but then there is a chance that the VKontakte administration will reject your request.

Alternative method

If your profile was hacked and then blocked for actions that violate VK rules, you cannot remember your login (password) or you cannot find your account address, then try to restore access directly through the VKontakte support service.

Note: To use this feature, you need to be logged in to the site. If you decide to create a new page for your request, under no circumstances link it to the same number as the old one, otherwise you risk losing access to the old account. You can open a support page from another person's profile - it will be safer.

Incorrect password. How to recover?

We are usually sure that we are entering the password correctly. But if it suddenly doesn’t fit (the VK website doesn’t accept it), there’s no need to rush. Maybe you are entering Russian letters instead of English? Then switch your language. What if there are big letters instead of small ones? Then turn off the Caps Lock button. If the password does not work, no matter what options you try, or you have forgotten it, you need to restore access.

To restore access to the page, go to the VKontakte website and click on the link "Forgot your password?":

Another way is to open the link. If you are on a phone, open using this link: for mobile users. A new window will appear with the VKontakte website in it, and you can switch between it and this page. Come back here and read on.

Do not register a new page for the same number! You will not be able to restore access to the one for which you forgot the password.

Start of recovery. What should be done?

You will be asked to enter the phone number or e-mail (email address) with which you logged into VK. The easiest way is to restore it using your phone number, if you have it at hand. Enter and click "Further":

The “Action Confirmation” window may appear - you need to check the box there "I am not a robot" and/or complete a small task. Read more here:

What should I do if I don’t remember my login? Look here how to find out: What to do if you forgot your VKontakte login. And if you can’t remember your phone number or email, look just below, there’s a link you need ("Press here"):

Next you need to provide a link to your page (it looks something like this: https://vk.com/id12345678) or just an ID (for example, id12345678). To find a link to yourself, there will be a people search below. And this instruction will help you find out the ID of the old page. Then you will be shown your first and last name - if everything is correct, click "Further" and proceed to the full recovery procedure:

How can I find my old, previous page?

To find the old page and restore access, first exit the new page (this is the link "Go out" on the VK website in the menu at the top right). Then you will still have to remember how the old page was registered: what phone number, email address - at least something.

If you have the number to which the page was linked at hand, look below.

And if you have a number, but you don’t remember your last name (it was a fake one), look at these tips: What to do if you forgot your last name, first name VKontakte.

Password recovery via SMS

After you have created a password, here's what you need to do:

  1. Where they ask “phone or e-mail”, enter your phone number, for example, 89161234567.
  2. You will be asked for your last name: enter the last name you indicated on the page. This is done for security reasons.
  3. The page will show the user's avatar, first and last name. If it's definitely you, confirm it.
  4. You will receive an SMS with a recovery code on your phone. This is not a password! This is the recovery code, you will need to enter it there on the page. If VK sends the code in a personal message, read this - The code was sent in private messages, why?
  5. Now you will be prompted to set a new password that you came up with. It will need to be entered twice and both times the same way. Do not press Enter between them, but go to the second field with the mouse. Is the Caps Lock button turned on? If the indicator is on, only capital letters are entered. And if Num Lock is turned off, then numbers cannot be entered on the right side of the keyboard, keep this in mind. Also, remember what language you are entering your password in.
  6. When you change your password, you will receive another SMS. There you will be reminded of your login and this new password.
  7. Now you can go to Contact. You can do this from the main page of VKontakte or from the “Login” start page (VHOD.RU) - the second option is more convenient, since in the future it will be easier for you to access your favorite sites with one click.

What to do if the code does not arrive?

Read the instructions:

What to do if it says “Error. Not available for this user"?

If you recover your password through an application on your phone and an error occurs, try doing it from a regular computer, laptop or tablet - just go to the site through a browser and do everything according to these instructions that you are looking at right now, from the very beginning. Another possible situation is that your page is not linked to this phone number. Maybe you never did this, or if you did, then maybe later this number was “unlinked” from the page. See the next method -.

What to do if “Error. Request limit exceeded?

This error happens when you request a password recovery code to be sent via SMS to your phone. The site writes that the code will be sent and then reports that the number of requests per day has been exceeded. First try to do everything from your computer if you are currently doing it from your phone. If it doesn’t work from your computer, read on for the explanation: this means that protection against too frequent password recovery attempts has worked. What to do? You need to wait one day. Try to recover your password tomorrow. You don't have to ask for a code all the time. This is a security measure against intruders, so please be understanding. Perhaps someone wanted to hack your page. Wait until tomorrow, request the code and be sure to set a complex password that is difficult to guess (more about passwords -).

What to do if “Error. "Quick password recovery is not available"?

This means that you have login confirmation enabled by mobile phone, and you can no longer recover your password via SMS. What to do in this case is written here:

What to do if the wrong page is restored?

You created another page for the same phone number! Read here:
