Hello,
I can't get into my microsoft account because it's authenticator is on a broken phone that's not usable anymore. When i log in, it says "Help us secure your account", then it opens the approve request code, and when i click "Having trouble?" and "Get code in a different way", after I get the code sent to my email or phone number and input it, it forces me to change my password, and if i change it the loop starts again, so I have been locked out of my account for some time.
P.S. I'm currently typing this from my schools miscrosoft account.
