    Malicious access to account even though 2 way auth is enabled


    I have 2 step authentication enables on my account. Still I get ActiveSync acticity from unknown IP address in Ireland 20.234.97.44. I live in Finland.How the hell is this possible? I have changed my password now but please explain me how this is possible?Microsoft authenticator also is utter **** not working properly. Not showing the 2 digit OTP code. I have the use rhe long one time password instead every time.Actually whole authentication process always gives me lots of aggression. It is just so bad. Please check out how google does it and fix this ****!

    Valve's new banning system is amazing

    -create new account
    -tie phone number of gabe newell to it without enabling 2-step-auth
    -proceed to cheat like its a "supplement" rigged bike racing
    -gabe is ban

    awesum!

    Cannot access shared network drive


    Personally, I wouldnt use Everyone. If anyone hacks into you, they have full access to everything and can demolish everything on your raid. I would rather set up accounts and access separately for each person. That way, I know who did all that damage. In the end with a little extra work, I feel more secure by using Authenticated Users.


    If this helps.
    step 1 create non-microsoft account and without email and address without admin rights
    step 2 share a drive or folder to specific user account (if Everyone is listed, remove it)
    step 3 set security > add Authenticated Users (if more than 1 account) or add specific users
    step 3a remove Everyone from list
    step 3b uncheck full control and write for all items listed except SYSTEM and Admin account.
    step 4 right click Start > Computer Management > System Tools > Shared Folders > Shares ... to verify settings and change anything else. You can also see the number of connections to each share here.

    Malicious access to account even though 2 way auth is enabled

    Unable to sign in to Outlook.com on one account (server not found)

    Sorry @Kari, I would have made the same suggestion as DavidY - remove the 2-step verification, or try the get a code in a different way.

    Have you tried accessing the email account using an app password?
