    Hello, I used Microsoft authenticator app for Microsoft work or school account. I uninstalled that app before remove account in Microsoft authenticator. I am a admin in Microsoft office 365. So, I disabled Microsoft authenticator. But one problem is raised that I can't enter security update infor. When I enter security update infor, " Please approve Microsoft authenticator". But I can't used because I already uninstalled.

    But, I reinstall that app. But, Microsoft authenticator also said that " Please approve Microsoft authenticator". Why?

    I want to update security information in my office 365 (work or school account).

    This method doesn't work for me. I have an entry in Microsoft Authenticator for Android for an account that no longer exists. The entry has a gray background, and clicking on it does nothing.

    Please advise.
