    MS Authenticator how to determine if it is used


    I currently use a password with my id probably since 1970s. I have updated my password multiple times in that interval. MS is advising to replace password with a passkey. MS describes the deletion of Authenticator App.I have a Samsung A25+ with Android. I use a thumb print, password, or picture.On my desktop custom built and laptop MS Surface, I use a camera to logon to the machines and to Office products. How do I determine if I use the Authenticator product? I have never interacted with the product when I have updated my password or added my id/password to new PCs.ThanksBob
