Forgot my Outlook password

Outlook is requiring me to enter my password. I thought I knew my password but it is not accepting it. I must not be entering the correct password so I need your help resetting my password.

If you are trying to use your iCloud email address in the Outlook mail application, you need to enable 2 Factor Authentication on your Apple ID and create an app specific password to use. If your account won’t allow 2 Factor Authentication, try 2 Step Verification.
