Question

How can I remove Facebook from Authenticator From Microsoft , Facebook can’t and I don’t have access to my Facebook

Answer 1

I can’t find it anymore in my authenticator application

Answer 2

Facebook in Microsoft Authenticator is just a third‑party OTP (one-time password) entry. It can be removed directly in the Authenticator app; Facebook access is not required to delete it.

To remove Facebook from Microsoft Authenticator:

1. Open the Microsoft Authenticator app on the phone.
2. Find the Facebook account tile in the list.
3. Tap the Facebook account.
4. Tap the settings/gear icon or the menu for that account.
5. Select Remove account and confirm.

If the goal is to sign out of Authenticator completely (remove all accounts):

• Follow the same “Remove account” steps for each account in the app, or
• Reset the app data from the device settings (this removes all accounts and stops Authenticator from working for sign-in until accounts are added again).

On Android:

1. Open Settings > Apps.
2. Select Authenticator.
3. Select Storage or Storage & cache.
4. Tap Clear data and confirm.

On iOS:

1. Open Settings > General > Storage.
2. Select Authenticator.
3. Tap Offload App and confirm.

After removal, Authenticator will no longer provide codes for Facebook. If Facebook access is needed later, a new authenticator setup must be done from the Facebook security settings.
