    Second step verification system has problems for several days and can't get computer access


    I am trying to complete my second verification to access my computer. I haven't been able to do so because I am getting a recurring message that says that "there is a temporary problem with this service. Please try again. If you continue to get this message, try again later." It has now been several days, and I still can't complete the second step. Anyone else having this problem? What can I do? I need access. Thank you for any help.

    :)

    Second step verification system has problems for several days and can't get computer access

    Outlook & Gmail requires two-step verification

    I'm running Win 10 Pro on an HP notebook with Office 365. I use Outlook to send and receive email from my gmail and yahoo email accounts.

    Today I noticed that Outlook couldn't access gmail. I can access gmail with my browser and android phone no problem.

    I contacted Microsoft Support and the first rep fixed the problem by generating an app password and two-step verification. I removed the two-step verification, and the problem reoccured.

    I contacted Microsoft Support again and the rep could not get Outlook to send and receive gmail unless two-step verifciation was active. The two-step verification is a pain in the ass.

    I'd like to find a way to continue using Outlook for gmail, but I don't want the hassle of two-step verifcation.

    I think Microsoft and Google ought to fix this issue. I don't think you should need a smart phone to use Outlook.

    Does anyone know of a solution that doesn't require two-step verification?
