If you know any other fixes please list them down below or make another guide!
People have been having this issue for four years and their was not a guide on this that I could find anywhere.

If by some regrettable circumstances that these do not work for you, you have my sympathy but I cannot do anything more for you. I recommend searching & questioning the Halo subreddit.

None of these worked. Downloaded MCC from steam. Created new microsoft outlook account. Play 1 level of Halo 1 and exit. When I go back to sign in it tells me account is locked for violation and I must do password recovery. Password recovery requires way too much personal information, it's absurd.
Now every time I attempt to sign in I get password recovery prompt and going back or trying another account doesn't work as it glitches back to password recovery.

Just exploring options before I get a refund.
