    How would I remove 2 factor authentication from my account?


    I guess this is more of an activision thing, but activision doesn't have a support team to talk to so I can't ask there. My old phone from 2 years ago was registered to this account through 2fa, and I could log in using it no problem. then I got this phone, and I couldn't back up my old photos and emails to this phone, so I lost the backup codes. I just need to be able to remove or turn off 2fa on my account so it turns it off on activision and I can log in.

    :)

    Thanks for confirming, Chris.

    In this particular case, it is necessary to reach Activision support via their official channels or social media.

    I found a similar subreddit, and the comments suggest the same:

    Hi, ChrisAplin1. I’m Arturo, and I’ll be glad to provide some assistance with your inquiry.

    Does the Activision account the one with two-step verification, or is two-step verification asked when you want to access to your outlook inbox?

    Unfortunately, the community or a Microsoft agent cannot offer other means or remove 2-factor authentication from your account.

    Hello, The first thing i would do is create a 6 digit PIN on my Xbox account, I would also make sure 2 factor authentication is active on my Microsoft account. You can set a Paskey on your xbox account through settings. You can enable 2 factor authentication through Microsoft Account Security settings. You should also use the Passwordless security method on your account using the Microsoft authenticator app on your phone.
