Windows 10: yubikey

Cannot sign into any Microsoft accounts using yubikey5...keeps saying "cannot use this key, try another" and when prompted for password/pin, says invalid pin. Followed the set up instructions...What now...dump Microsoft and migrate over to Linux mint?(where yubikey works great)

Yubikey Two-Factor Authentication

Hi....I just purchased a " Yubikey " to use with the password manager
LastPass and it works very well as a two-factor authentication. I sign on to my PC with my Microsoft account and would like to use the Yubikey as a two-factor there also. I can't seem to find a procedure at Microsoft that explains
how to set this up correctly. The last thing I want to do is lock myself out of my PC.

I need to know ;

(1) The procedure to setup a Yubikey with a Microsoft account.

(2) Will the Yubikey work OK on any PC that I may sign onto with my Microsoft account. I have several PC's i often sign into .

Any help will be appreciated.

Thanks.....Larry

 

Yubikey security [[one]] with several [[three or more]] microsoft accounts

if you have three computers and plan to use YUBIKEY, will Microsoft still use the passwords on public computers?
