    So, the solution is simple. Changing the browser, or updating, or things of similar nature won't really matter in this context.

    What the solution is to:

    Step1: Add a new email address your Microsoft account. Don't add the @outlook.com email address.

    Step2: Make the new email address your account's primary alias.

    Step3: Add a new phone number for the account.

    Step4: Change the primary alias back to your previous @outlook.com email address.

    Step5: You can now remove the added email account to your Microsoft account.

    Step6: You're done.

    Hope this help, it has worked for me this way after trying for months.

    I use the gmail email address, not outlook so would this work?
