Hello,

I am having trouble accessing my Microsoft 365 developer subscription account because I enabled two-factor authentication (2FA) and my phone was stolen. I cannot disable the 2FA without my phone, and I am unable to access my account.

Can someone please help me with the following issues?

  1. How can I disable two-factor authentication without my phone?
  2. Is there an alternative method to verify my identity and regain access to my account?

Thank you for your assistance.

    Dear Eduardo,

    Thank you for visiting the Microsoft Community. 

    We've noticed that you seem to be having trouble with the Authenticator. I wish I could solve your problem, but it is more suitable to publish on Microsoft Learn Authenticator, more users post these problems there, you can click on "Ask a question", there are experts who may provide more professional solutions in that place.

    Here's a link: <Microsoft Authenticator - Microsoft Q&A> to the forum where you can raise specific scenarios and share your idea to solve the problem.

    I sincerely hope that your query is handled appropriately after you have contacted the appropriate department. Thank you for your understanding!
