Windows 10: ridiculous cheating

Just saw someone finished a 20 game event in an absurd time of 4.2 seconds per game. Why does Microsoft allow these cheaters to play? When they see an absolute cheat they should remove their account. These same games took me an hour and 10 minutes and they finished all 20 in one minute 24 seconds. A total physical impossibility. Do they feel accomplished by cheating? I'd hate to play golf with them. Microsoft needs to get rid of these people.

Ridiculous installation requirement


@whs, what you have experienced is due Two-Step verification which you have turned on. It is of course up to you alone if you decide to use this added security feature or turn it off. This screenshot from MS account's security options page:




More: Microsoft Account "Two-step Verification" - Turn On or Off.

In my case, I have Two-Step verification on with a secondary email address, a mobile phone number and the Microsoft Authenticator app installed on my Windows phone. In my case when installing Windows and using an MS Account for initial sign in I will get this:




If I have no access to my Windows Phone or for another reason want to use an alternative method, I can select phone or email:




Conclusion: You will only be asked the security code sent by email if you have set up the Two-Step verification feature and email is the only option (you will not use the Authenticator app nor have you given a phone number in your MS Account security settings).

 

Ridiculous installation requirement

Thanks Kari. That is a very nice explanation of the options. But I did not turn on any 2 step verification. I just threw in the .iso and installed. It must be the default setting. The secondary email does not help the guy who has only 1 PC and nothing else.

 

Cheated by Gameloft

Hi Mohamed!

Well, if you cheated, they had a reason to ban you. You can't get a refund, you cheated and you were banned, it's your fault.
