    Every time i have to troubleshoot issues concerning Microsoft issues, I waste multiple hours maybe even a whole working day with one single problem.

    Your freaking onedrive webapp is not sending out the account recovery code. I'm trying to login from a vpn location and your freaking app is not letting me in. From my local pc I can login. When I use VPN, Microsoft will gracefully detect 'unexpected' things and asking me to confirm account with a code which is never being sent out. I'm trying since several hours to login to my own account to access my own files !!!!! I just want to save them and never use Microsoft again anymore, it's my last service from Microsoft and byebye !

    Oh how I wish Microsoft would've never existed !

    Of course there is no solution for my problem, I just have to wait until it's fixed (and screw myself until then).

    This whole forum is full of gibberish, support personnel not understanding users and vice-versa, no value here.

    Never ever use Microsoft.

    Hi,

    Two-step verification helps you protect your Microsoft Account by making it more difficult for someone else to sign it in. It uses two different forms of identity: your password, and a contact method. You can generate a new verification code on your primary email account by recovering it. To recover your primary email account, fill out the Recovery Form.

    Once you're done with account recovery process, you can turn on two-step verification on your account for you to be able to receive a new verification code. To turn on two-step verification, follow the steps provided on this link.

    If you'll need further assistance, feel free to reply on this post.
