Hello, I have an account named “Yiğityd,” but I cannot remember the email address associated with this account. Could you please assist me regarding this matter?

Merhabalar, Yiğityd adlı bir hesabım bulunmaktadır ancak bu hesaba ait e-posta adresini hatırlayamıyorum. Konu hakkında yardımcı olabilir misiniz?

Hi @yigityd1,

1.If you don't know which email was used:
try https://support.github.com/contact and submit a support ticket directly. GitHub's support team can verify your identity and help you regain access.

2. Search for "GitHub" or a mail from"noreply@github.com" across all your email accounts.

3. If you previously used SSH or a Git client Your local .gitconfig file may still contain the associated email.
   use this terminal command :- git config --global user.email

4. Try https://github.com/password_reset Enter any email you might have used and check if a reset email arrives.

Thanks for posting in the GitHub Community, @yigityd1 ! We're happy you're here. You are more likely to get a useful response if you are posting in the applicable category. The Accessibility category is a place for our community to discuss and provide feedback on the digital accessibility of GitHub products.

I've gone ahead and moved this to the correct category for you, General. Good luck!

Go to github.com/password/reset and enter your username "Yiğityd". GitHub will show you a partially hidden version of the email address on file, like "y***@example.com". That should jog your memory.

If you can't recognize it, you'll need to contact GitHub Support. Use the contact form at github.com/contact and select "Account" then "I can't sign in". Provide your username and any proof you own the account, like a recent commit SHA or linked repository URL.

If you had two-factor authentication enabled, you'll need those recovery codes after you regain email access.
