    Account suspended with 2fa active


    Recently I got locked out of my account for ‘Violating terms and services’. The account, which I only use to play Minecraft, for some reason got locked, I filled in the reactivation form and it got reactivated. Just to be sure there wasn’t anyone trying to get into my account ,I turned on 2fa with the authenticator app on my phone. Then after a week or so, the account got locked again. I filled in the form again but this time it said that they couldn’t do anything because 2fa is turned on and the only thing they could do is delete the account.Is there really nothing left to do? Theres a lot of

    :)

    2FA on account

    Hi, I wanted to add 2FA on a microsoft account. I use the default mail app on 2 windows 10 pc's with outlook email addresses. I assumed when I activated 2FA that I would need to create an app password for each of the pc's. Do they need new app passwords or will they continue to work as before with 2FA enabled. Hope this makes sense thanks

    Grandparents Account Locked 2FA set to Landline

    Good morning,

    My grandparents have locked the Microsoft account and are unable to receive the 2FA code. Apparently they got confused when setting 2FA and entered their landline which can't receive text messages. I'm not seeing any other option to send the code to their email for verification.

    Account recovery seems to be denied because 2FA was enabled. What next steps can we take?
