Windows 10: Microsoft Authenticator won't scan the Microsoft QR code.

Like the title says, the MICROSOFT AUTHENTICATOR APP WON'T SCAN THE MICROSOFT QR CODE. I'm trying to add it but i keep getting the error "Invalid Bar code". Why can't two Microsoft products work together? I have 5 different sign in's on it but it can't get the company that makes each of them right. Can it be done with a setup key instead of the broken QR code scanner?

Microsoft Authenticator asking for a QR Code

I have set up several google gmail accounts and school email accounts with no problem, why does it ask for a QR code when before it didnt, there is also no place on gmail or my school to get a QR code specifically for Microsoft Authenticator.

Hello,

I am trying to activate Microsoft Authenticator on my phone and when I go to add a school or google mail account I am asked to enter a QR code instead of being asked for the email address and password combination.
