VK login by login
The easiest way to log into the VK social network without a password is to go through the procedure of changing the code word. You can change the code word even without authorization, although the procedure itself is not as simple as for most resources. But at each stage there are tips for filling out, and you can always go back a step or to the initial stage.
Login is email and cell phone number.
Please note that the ability to restore access exists only for those who have linked their profile to a valid phone number.
For several years now, registration on the VKontakte website has been available only if you have a phone number, but there may be cases when the profile is not linked to a number. In this case, restoration will be carried out according to a different scheme.
Login instructions:
- You must select "Forgot your password?”, which is located immediately below the authorization block.
- After this, a form will open to indicate your current login. For the VKontakte website, 2 logins are valid at the same time, which are equivalent to each other, so in the form you can enter either an email address or a mobile phone number in international format.
If you enter an email address in the “Login” field, the password recovery scheme will not change. There must be access to a mobile phone in any case. Restoring access by email, as with most sites, does not work. After specifying your login, you need to click Next to proceed to the next step. - However, before the system creates the opportunity to restore access, it will need to check the user for “reality”. First, a form will appear where you will need to click the “ I am not a robot».
- Then a block of pictures will appear, where you will need to select images with the appropriate description. There are 9 pictures in the block, the marked picture will be replaced with a new one until there is not a single one in all 9 pictures that matches the description. In VK, the block with pictures can be changed using the update icon - a circular arrow, and for people with poor vision, they can listen to the description of the task by clicking the headphones icon. After completing the task, you must click Confirm and proceed to the new stage.
- The next step will be to search and confirm your profile. This will require the user's last name, so before entering the recovery form, it is recommended to clarify the correct spelling of your data through friends on the social network. They must match the data specified in the profile. You don't need to write your full name, just your last name. There are no additional hints with “peeping” information.
- After entering the last name, the system will display the proposed account. In most cases it matches, so you need to select “ Yes, this is the right page" If the specified profile is not yours, you must click " come back" In this case, the system will return the user not one step, but to the very beginning to the block with entering the login and password, since, most likely, an error was made at this stage.
- If the profile is correct, the system will offer to send a code to the linked phone number. The phone number itself is not displayed in full - this is one of the security measures. After confirming the number, a box will appear to enter the code, where you will need to enter the combination that came to the phone. Then a field for entering a new secret combination will open, and access to the account will be opened.
