Windows 10: Unable to sign in as verification method service is down and no alternative method available

Hi My account was blocked due to some unknown activity. When I try to sign in I am redirected to verification page. When I input my phone number I get a message that verification method is currently unavailable. I tried to reset my password for which I again was sent for verification. This time I got the SMS on my phone and was able to change my password. However, when I tried to sign in with the new password I was taken again to the verification page where the I got the same error that verification service is not available. I donot have any other verification methods setup other than my phone

:)

How to fix "Try another verification method, that verification method isn't working right now. Please try another method."

Hello Sefkoo,

Good Day!!

I am Ramya. Thanks for Reaching Out.

The message "That verification method isn't working right now. Please try another method" usually indicates that the verification process via phone number is temporarily unavailable.

Please try with Different Verification Methods:

a.Clear Browser Cache and Cookies:

Sometimes, clearing your browser's cache and cookies can resolve these issues. After clearing them, try the verification process again.

b. Alternative Verification method.

If you have an alternative verification method set up, such as a secondary email address or security questions, try using that method instead.

c. Try a Different Browser or Incognito Mode:

There might be an issue with your browser. Try using the Edge browser then opening an incognito/private browsing window and attempt the process again.

d. Check the Phone Number:

Ensure that the phone number you are trying to use isn't already associated with another account. Some services do not allow a phone number to be linked to multiple accounts.

e.Account Recovery Options:

Please feel free to contact me for further assistance.

Thanks,

Best method to disable Vista/Vista 64 driver signing?

Black Ice:

It's not a matter of "try". The bcdedit command is not fully consistent and reliable for some folks.

So far, to me, it seems the third choice always locks (disables) the driver signing. If that is the case for anyone who uses it, then that would suggest it is the more reliable and consistent method of the ones I've listed, anyway.

Thanks for your feedback.
