Somebody hacked into my Microsoft account and changed the associated email and password. I’ve tried all the troubleshooting steps on the Microsoft website, but without the new email, I'm stuck. What should I do next?

There’s an excellent tutorial here by Diane Poremsky who is an MVP so the information is 100% reliable on what your options are:

Please be aware that as the email address has been changed to that of the hacker &/or 2fa/mfa has been enabled then usually there’s nothing which can be done. If you know the email then there’s a slim chance though.
