I recently set up my personal vault on my One Drive cell phone app and it required a code. On my laptop it doesn't require the code but instead asks you to verify. How can I set up a code on my laptop?

How to change the One Drive Personal Vault PIN?

Hi TT,

Thanks for your help. After I logged in through Web Browser, I right mouse click Personal Vault, there is no ''Option''. If I clicked to into Pesonal Vault, I also cannot see any ''Option''. I saw ''Details''. Even if I choose ''Details'', I don't see any
option or ways to change PIN. Why is it so difficult to change the PIN that I'm using to open the Personal Vault when I open it on my mobile OneDrive\Personal Vault?

 

Personal Vault - How to change verification from code to PIN ?

Hi Mike, thanks for reaching out! I'm an Independent Advisor and a Microsoft user like you. Please allow me to assist with your issue.

Two-step verification is required to gain access to Personal Vault.

On OneDrive Mobile App, you will be able to setup Personal Vault PIN to gain access to Personal Vault.

On Desktop or Browser, the verification is by Text, Email or Microsoft Authenticator App depending on the two-step verification method you have configured for your Microsoft Account.

I would sugggest setting up Microsoft Authenticator App so you can unlock your Personal Vault with lesser steps while on Desktop or Browser - Unlock Personal Vault > Send Notification > Approve on Microsoft Authenticator App. If you would like to update your
Two-step verification method, please refer to this article:
