    Yubico Key Problem


    Hello great mind of microsoft,I have made the awful decision of buying a Yubico key to increase my security in my accounts and such. I have tried to configure the key but it then required me to first add it through the windows sign-in options awful decision now when I try to configure the key on every service it goes fine. then it asks for the key after i test by logging out and it says something went wrong. now I am locked out of my google account and my password manager because you amazing minds have created such an amazing working software. I need help and ASAP

    :)

    What hardware keys by yubico work with microsoft accounts

    HI I was wondering if I could ask some questions about yubikeys for microsoft accounts. I was wondering what yubikeys work with microsoft accounts. Do all microsoft accounts work with hardware yubikey 5 series and security key series these keys are made by yubico

    The website is below:

    Yubico | YubiKey Strong Two Factor Authentication

    Will either of these work for any microsoft accounts including a free microsoft account.

    Thanks

    Microsoft Security and Google reject Yubico security key?

    I bought a Yubico Security Key for MFA on my Nord Account (password manager). I have installed the key in Nord but when I try to use it a dialog box opens. I have a screenshot but it will not upload. The dialog says:

    Windows Security

    Masking sure it's you.

    Please sign in to nordaccount.com

    This request comes from Chrome, published by Google LLC.

    This security key doesn't look familiar.

    Please try a different one.

    [Cancel]

    I spent several hours with Nord support who could not help. I inquired with Yubico, who told me the problem was not the key but "the service" and I should reinstall the key and try again. I did, and still have the problem.

    I registered the key with my Microsoft account but that did not help either.

    Why is Windows Security interfering and what does it have to do with Chrome?
