Windows 10: Code to login not being sent to nominated address

Trying to login to my Lenovo laptop using the Microsoft account login however it keeps saying that a code has been sent to my nominated email address and I need to enter it however the code is never sent and I can’t login. I’ve tried multiple times.

Bytes sent to Dropbox ip address ....

It is the same computer. I recently began checking to see what addresses outgoing packets/bytes were being sent to. And there were a few that were questionable to me. The data sent to DropBox, being most obvious to me. Any suggestions as to next steps
would be greatly appreciated. I have a security program that returns no findings upon full or quick scans. I have used MBAM free and also returned no findings. Presuming I have been 'attacked/infected' what should my next steps be?

 

Invitation sent to their email address. but even when they accept the message is not updated online

Hi,



Thank you for posting in Microsoft Community.



Sorry for the inconvenience caused to you. I’ll certainly help you with this.

There could be a corruption with the Family Safety settings. I suggest you to remove and re-add the account.

Follow these steps:

• Go to
  https://account.microsoft.com/family#/
• You will see the child account listed with a message saying that the invitation has been sent.
• Click on Remove option and select the child account with the "invitation has been sent" message.
• Click the Add option and re-enter your child's email address.

Not able to receive confirmation codes sent to me

Hi! Lately, I don't seem to be able to receive confirmation codes that are sent to my email addresses, so that I can logon to their sites. This recently happened several times when tracfone tried to send me codes. And today - it happened when I tried to logon to the Melaleuca site, which requires confirmation by code, too. I have read online instructions on how to fix the problem, but I can't see how any of their suggestions could help fix the problem. I absolutely never block texts from unknown numbers, so that that doesn't apply to me. I absolutely never receive codes in my junk folders. I always type my email address and phone correctly - so it's a waste of tim to remind me to do so. I absolutely never use airplane mode - plus all of our phones and computers are able to get online fine. So I don't see how someone's suggestion to turn it off and thn back on can help anything. So what else can you suggest I try? Should I reinstall my operating system (Windows 10) and start all over - would that help? Thanks!
