Authenticator not sending code for Instagram

This morning, I received 2 codes for my Instagram account which I wasn’t trying to log into. I immediately changed my password.

Now, almost 24 hours later, the internet connection was lost here and when it was restored, I was prompted to sign back into Instagram. When I tried to, naturally, I’m being promoted to enter the code from the Authenticator app. The app is not sending me a code, though. It’s actually not even showing that Instagram is connected. I deleted and reinstalled the Authenticator app. I tried to add Instagram and the camera is opening and promoting me to scan a QR code. There is no such code anywhere.

What do I do?

Microsoft Security Microsoft Authenticator
