    Cell number assosciated with another MS account

    My daughter is setting up her new laptop and entered her cell number.

    Her number is associated with somebody else's Microsoft account and so now some stranger is the administrator on this laptop.

    Is there a way to get MS to associate this phone number to my daughter's account?

    Add gmail account to outlook without text message verification?

    A screenshot might help us identify whether it is MS or gmail that is responsible for this (my guess is gmail). The MS instructions you linked to say that no verification should be required if 2FA (in gmail) is off.
    I suggest you turn on 2FA in gmail, and try again.
