Hello, I recently had to reset my phone, and for some reason my microsoft authenticator app erased all my saved accounts, which I can't have access now. Any advice on how to resolve this? Thank you

In the absence of a backup for restoration, the sole recourse is to utilize the account recovery methods provided by each service provider. The Microsoft Authenticator functions solely as a code generator.
