RE: Test - Create/Edit Op Status
It's not important, which of the incoming requests you confirm, but I would go with the newest. You can always create new ones (in case you created the owner key for the wrong account). They are valid for 24 hours. If you wait too long, you need to start again with creating a new request.
For now forget the part with changing the password (and the one hour waiting period). You first need to successfully confirm one of the requests.
Not now since it's midnight and have only a few hours left to sleep ☹
You have a few days left, so it does not need to be done today.
I don't see a request so I assume that's solved.
Next step new keys or?
What if I have them?
Where do I use which key where to sign in?
As long as you don't see a 'Recover Account' operation in your Account Operations, it's not done.
I still see the request (You did click on 'Load Recovery Request'?):
There you just need to enter your recent public owner key (STM5mS7CutvnfV32w9FHpe78Dc7tao8RjbMQHNeJ5PScwR1fhmQD9) and click on 'Recover Account'.
It will then ask you to enter the private keys for the given public keys.
wow @steemchiller my huge respect to you for helping out this lady on her issue. thank you for helping her 🤗🥰 good day to you and thank you for all your hard work for the community.
Thank you. She is kind of an unrecoverable hard nut, very unfocused (doing too many things at the same time), but I think we will get there... ^^
good luck and this will require a very high level of patience 😅

Thanks for having a good laugh about me. It does make me feel so much better! 🍀💖
Nothing to see at my end
You clicked the button 'Load Recovery Request'?
Yes, I did many times yesterday and today.
Never showed anything up till just right now.
Different public key from what you mentioned (my try of febr 13th).
I don't know why it didn't show earlier. 🍀💖
So, you see the incoming recovery request from yesterday with expiration time '2022-02-23, 20:39:48', right?
The 'New Public Owner Key' is the public key for the newly created private owner key (which you created with the Key Generator for starting the request).
The 'Recent Public Owner Key' needs to be filled with the public key I mentioned yesterday (You can also see it at the bottom of the 'Owner Key History' below). It's your old key that was active for years.
I don't see this/an expiredate on my phone.
What I see is what is on the printscreen earlier. Is there info/text out of my sight? There is no open incoming recovery request!
If I ask for the keys now I see nothing.
So, I don't know what to do with the old (very first) public owner key.
I'm going to try another browser.
Update: used a different browser saw the option plus 'incoming recovery request'.
Had to change screens to go for keys.
Ot didn't work.
Have the very first public and private owner key same for febr 13th but I think these no longer work/fit.
Tried again but now nothing shows.
Better expire and a new request or just new keys or?
It's hard to recover if nothing shows.
I would never ever in my life do such administrative tasks on a phone. Always use a laptop or desktop pc, if you want to achieve something on Steem.
Anyway, the key from feb. 13th 2022 is not your old key. That is the key the 'hacker' has set, so ignore it. Just enter the public key I mentioned earlier and click 'Recover Account'.
