Hi all,

My MFA isn't working for my account. It's greyed out and now I cant get access to any codes I need.

What can/ should I do?

Thanks

    Not much to go on but it sounds like you'll need the account admins to reset the account so a new QR code can be generated with which you can relink the authentication device to your account.

    If you are the admin (and blocked) then you can reach out to 365 global customer service here.
