Hi @betsy glynn

Please visit the following page for turning off two-step verification:

Go to Security settings and sign in with your Microsoft account.
Under the Two-step verification section, choose Set up two-step verification to turn it on, or choose Turn off two-step verification to turn it off.
Follow the instructions.

Use that page to turn it off.
