Authenticator app

It's really the dumbest thing I've ever seen to require a code to be sent to the authentication app just to sign into the authentication app so that means if you ever accidentally get signed out of the authentication app for any reason you're screwed.

To opt into Two-Factor Authentication:

1. In your ACCOUNT Settings, click on the PASSWORD & SECURITY tab to view your security settings.
2. At the bottom of the page, under the TWO-FACTOR AUTHENTICATION heading, click to ENABLE AUTHENTICATOR APP or ENABLE EMAIL AUTHENTICATION as your two-factor method.

If you prefer to use an authenticator app for two-step verification, here are a few common authenticator apps that can be found in your mobile device app store:

• Google Authenticator
• LastPass Authenticator
• Microsoft Authenticator
• Authy

Keep your account safe and remember, Epic employees will never ask for your password!

Well, I wouldn't say they are idiots honestly. They are following security best practices to help prevent social engineering. They are really trying to protect you

Good Luck!

Thanks, but that is not an option, I have looked into this. Spoke to Microsoft rep, zero assistance, blames it on me. The issue here is, Microsoft have not thought about this logically, the implementation of this security feature is flawed and should
include another step to allow people to communicate directly to a Microsoft rep in order to resolve the issue. Which is not possible, because I have tried.
