    2FA Xbox One


    Good Day!

    We are trying to set up 2fa for my son on an old 2015 Xbox One Halo special edition machine. We are being unsuccessful! We are following the you tube tutorials however under the settings on his micrososoft / xbox live account on the xbox, there is no security
    settings option / 2 fa option. We have painstakingly trawled through every single section but there is nothing referencing 2fa.

    Is it the machine? Is it too old for this? Or are we doing something wrong?

    Please note that we are not IT illiterate or new to gaming - we have been doing it successfully for many years but this has us flummoxed!

    Thanks in advance for your help.

    :)

    2FA Xbox One

    Thank you for your reply.

    We have done all of this and have the authentication app on the phone however there is nowhere in the xbox one settings which allows us to use two step authentication. We have gone into every selectable option on xbox live but there is nothing. What my son
    really wants is the 2fa to work so that he can participate in the competitive events. We have also followed the instructions on epic games but the problem seems to be that the actual xbox doesnt allow for 2fa hence my question is whether the console is the
    problem and needs to be upgraded to a newer model?

    Many Thanks!

    Can't login to Xbox 360 profile after changing gamertag on xbox one

    Are you trying to download your profile on the 360 emulator on the One? or did you remove your profile from the One side of things?

    If you are on the 360 emulator turn off 2FA first then add your account back on the 360 emulator then turn back on the 2FA
