    How can I get 7 digit verification codes instead of 6?

    I have a personal Microsoft account. It has 2-step verification set up.

    Today, I’m performing a fresh install of Windows 11. I try to login with my personal Microsoft account, so I enter my username and password. I’m then prompted to use my email, phone number, or Authenticator app to get my verification code.

    I don’t have my personal account set up with my Authenticator app, so I use email. I receive a 6 digit code and I try entering that into the code text field on the login prompt, but then it tells me I need a 7 digit code.

    I the. Try to get a code through sms text, but that also only gives me a 6 digit code.

    None of my options are giving me a verification code that works.

    I cannot find any solutions to this, so I attempted to request a security info replacement in hopes to disable 2-step authentication. I then provided an alternate email.

    Unfortunately, it appears this process takes a month, so I attempt to cancel the request. In order to do so, I have to enter a verification code and, again, I am only able to receive 6 digit codes but the prompt requires 7 digits.

    Please help!

    I keep getting sent a 6 digit verification code instead of a 7 digit code while trying to sign in.

    Since changing components in my computer I have had to sign in to my microsoft account in order to reset my pin code. I know my password and username and microsoft sends a verification code that is only six digits long instead of the required 7 digit code. How do I get a seven digit code since I can no longer use my desktop until this issue is resolved.

    I keep getting sent a 6 digit verification code instead of a 7 digit code while trying to...

    Why send a 6 digit code but demand a 7 digit code?

    I'm trying to reset the password on my laptop cause for some reason my pin is invalid and I keep getting 5 digit verification codes but then I keep getting told I need 7 digit codes.

    SEND ME THE 7 DIGIT CODE THEN

    WHAT IS THE POINT OF SENDING THE 6 DIGIT CODE
