Recovering a Microsoft account eternal loop

[Efour]

I'm an idiot.

I've deleted the password authentication app for Microsoft.

I reinstalled it and readded my account but it never worked again so I removed the account again.

Now ofc the account still thinks I have the. Passwordless verification available and I have to constantly double verify by either text SMS or email.

Wheel finally I hit a limit too many verification attempts today try tomorrow
.
Wtf can I do now? Wait till tomorrow and start again.... How the hell am I gonna remove the old verification app.

Ive had this account for 25 years I'm not giving up on it.

I'll try this when I get back to my home pc in a day or 2

Is there not an option to say you can't access the verification? If you can't reset it then you will have to contact them.

Try via email/SMS etc if available.

Yes there was and i was doing it but for some reason it started going in some odd loop.
I had to verify the account twice then 2 step log in and it thought it was dodgy so stopped giving me 2 step authent as id had enough that day.. lol

Anyway back on a real trusted PC i quickly set it up again with QR code.

An infuriating mistake whilst on holiday.
