I previously used Microsoft Authenticator for Facebook 2FA, but I lost my phone before enabling cloud backup. After installing Authenticator on a new phone and signing in with the same Microsoft account, my Facebook account and codes are missing.
Is there any way to recover these codes without a backup, or is Facebook account recovery the only option? Does Microsoft store any authenticator data that can be restored?
