To recover a deleted Gmail account, visit the Google Account Recovery page as soon as possible. Fill in the email address of the account you wish to recover. If prompted, provide any recovery email or phone number associated with the account. Follow the on-screen instructions carefully. If the account is recoverable, you'll be able to reset the password and regain access. Act quickly, as Google eventually permanently deletes accounts that have been inactive or deleted for an extended period, making recovery impossible.
