    • On the left, select Azure Active Directory > Users > All Users.
    • Choose the user you wish to perform an action on and select Authentication Methods.

    First, I already download the Microsoft authenticator, but it alway want me to open Microsoft authenticator to approve the request to sgin in. When I cannot use Microsoft authenticator, how can I open Microsoft authenticator to approve the request? 248227-problem-2.png

    Second, When I click "I can't use my Microsoft Authenticator app right now", it show that I need to Verify my identity by approve a requset on app or use a verification code. Again, these two ways need to sign in to the app and I cannot sign in to the app.248244-problem-1.png
