Windows 10: Verification code

Hi,I have been waiting a couple hours with no reply of a verification code to access my computer this is serious as I could fail a course I am doing without this code as it gives me access to all of my school work. I need this code ASAP to get my work completed.

The verification code sent to my email is always wrong

Hi

Welcome to Microsoft community.

I understand that you're having trouble with the verification code. Here are a few steps that might help:

1. Check for Typos: Ensure that you're entering the code exactly as it appears in your email, without any spaces or special characters.
   
2. Timeliness: Verification codes often have an expiration time, usually within 15-30 minutes after they're sent. Make sure you're using the code soon after receiving it.
   
3. Resend Code: If the first two steps don't work, try requesting a new verification code.
   
4. Browser Issues: Clear your browser cache and cookies, or try using a different browser or device to enter the verification code.
   

Please note that some services may have limited functionality in Iran which could be contributing to this issue.

Please feel free to let me know if you have any further updates, thanks.

Not getting verification code what can I do?

Hello Dhruva,

I see you've already followed some steps.

I was reading your answers and I have a suggestion for you.

I once tried to get a verification code on my phone and it said the code was sent but I never received it.

I updated the messaging app and it still didn't help.

I followed some other steps and it didn't help.

My only solution was to remove my SIM Card and put it in another old phone that I no longer used and asked to resend the code and then the verification code arrived perfectly.

This might be a solution for you.

Daniel.

 

Did not receive the Microsoft Account Verification Code

Hi, SHARON.

I'm Jen, I'm also an Outlook account user just like you. I'm not working for Microsoft but I'd be happy to help you figure this out.

I understand you're not receiving a verification code for your Microsoft account. If your security info's are up to date, you may be experiencing delays receiving the code which I have also experienced before. But if you have already waited too long and have made a couple of attempts, I suggest following the suggested steps in the "Troubleshooting verification code issues" section on the support page below.

Feel free to share how it went.

Kind regards.
