  1. Can not verify my Identity to my computer.


    I am trying to sync my passwords between my devices, but when attempting to, a prompt appears for me to enter a password for an account long gone. I have tried changing the password to said account, but when I try that it tells me the account no longer exists which I knew as I was the one to delete it and replace it with my current MS account. This has also affected my ability to use the MS store as when trying to install a product that I purchased through the browser version of the store, the store app then prompts me to log on to the same dead account. This is extremely frustrating and I have not found a solution that works.

  2. “We need to verify your identity”,

    I have received this code about a 100 times, either to my phone or my e-mail. It lasts about an hour or two, then I get the “We need to verify your identity” pop-up again.

    Two-step sign in is not activated.

    I also noticed that on the "My devices" page, my desktop PC is shown with detailed info, like motherboard type, Windows 10 Core (10.0.10586.63), etc.

    But my other computer, the laptop, is just listed as "PC". No other information is available, not Windows version, no hardware details, nothing. That laptop is the only one that gets this annoying “We need to verify your identity” despite me having entered
    the code over a hundred times in any available way.

    I am quite certain that the fact that not detailed PC or Windows information is closely related to the “We need to verify your identity” problem.
