need 6 digit code for Quick Assist in Win 10

Hi David,

We would like to clarify what the previous Community Forum Moderator suggested. Once you follow the steps that he provided, you will need to click on
Get Assistance, and then follow the instructions in
Quick Assist.The 6-digit code will be provided by the one who will assist you. He/She should choose
Give assistance instead to be able to get the 6-digit code.

You will request assistance from a helper (either a friend or Microsoft Support). Both start Quick Assist and the helper sends a security code to the person who needs help. The person who needs help enters the code and gives permission to the helper,
who is then able to take control of that person’s computer and provide assistance over the remote connection.

Do let us know if you have further concerns.
