Remove MFA / MS Authenticator from admin.microsoft.com

[Superficial]

Hi,

I recently setup our MS 365 account and received the warning that I had 7 days before MFA was mandatory so I set it up for the admin login and it shows as completed in setup>sign-in and security.

I would like to now remove this and I cannot do this from Users>active Users... even though the admin is clearly listed (MFA is not switched on at all for all active users)

Can anyone assist? If there is an option to disable MFA specifically for the admin in admin.microsoft.com I can't seem to find it.

Thanks

Generally you'll have to disable security defaults (not recommended) as this applies to your tenant and all users.

Thanks - I've done this temporarily while we change admins.
