I clicked "add phone number" on manage how to sign in with microsoft. I then added my phone number and recieved no text. I resent the code and yet recieved no text. I restarted my phone, reset the wifi and looked at other articles with people having this problem. Nothing helped. Please don't send me the microsoft help page on this issue because that hasn't fixed the problem.

    I receive the text message and when I enter the code, Microsoft again asks me for my password to verify. Once I add my password, I get a message saying I can't add this alias. How do I get my number on my profile?

    Hello Aronas,

    Good to see you in Microsoft Community.

    I suggest you try adding the phone number again by following the steps below:

    1. Sign in to Manage how you sign in to Microsoft. If you’re having issues signing in to your Microsoft account, see Microsoft account help for more info.
    2. Select Add emailor Add phone number.
    3. Follow the instructions to add a new email address or phone number to your Microsoft account aliases.

    I recommend that you visit the above link in your phone's browser (using cellular, not WiFi) to add a phone number, which theoretically excludes other distractions and allows the same ISP (Internet Service Provider) to minimize latency.

    If anything is unclear, please do not hesitate to let me know.

    Best Regards,
