  1. Microsoft wont send me a verification code on minecraft


    The issue started today when the minecraft launcher would not update bedrock so I re-installed the launcher but then it needed me to log into microsoft again so I did and a box poped up saying something along the lines of "Because you're accessing sensitive info, we'll send a code to your email to verify your identity" so I select send code and then wait for a code to be sent but I do not recive on so I check my spam/junk folder and do not see any thing regarding microsoft or minecraft. I have retried multiple times and as of right now I am unable to play because of this issue.

    :)

    Microsoft wont send me a verification code on minecraft

    Hello Christopher_212,

    I'm an Independent Advisor. Let me help you with your concern today. Please note that this is a public forum, I will be responding to you in short period of time and I apologize for a delay in response. As I am merely a user trying to provide insight and information that may be helpful.

    I understand your concern. Did you make sure that you are entering the correct email from your security info? Do you have the option "Show more verification methods"? If you have, try using that other option to receive a code. Are you able to login to this link to check your security information? Try to open this link in a device or browser where you have recently logged in your MS account successfully. https://go.microsoft.com/fwlink/?linkid=2204804

    Please do try following other solutions in this article https://support.microsoft.com/account-billing/t...

    I hope this helps. I will be awaiting your response.

    Regards,

    Belle

    Microsoft verification codes not sending

    Hi there! This is Virginia O.

    I understand that you are experiencing issues receiving the verification code.

    I apologize for the inconvenienced this has caused you. I will do my best to help you.

    Be guided that this is a public community forum, so we are players like you, we are not employees of Microsoft or Xbox, so we do not have access to any user account or check anything from the forum. All users help each other with common problems.

    Please verify contact information by double-checking that the email address and phone number associated with your Microsoft account are correct. Make sure that you are using the correct phone number and email address for verification purposes.

    And then check Junk/Spam folders because verification codes may end up in the junk or spam folder of your email account. Ensure to check these folders regularly.

    Next is to try different devices. Kindly request the verification code from a different device to make sure that the issue is not related to a specific device.

    If the issue persist after performing the troubleshooting steps, kindly wait and try again because if the “Send Code” button is hit too many times, Microsoft might impose a temporary block or delay on code delivery as a security measure.

    Please give it an hour or two before requesting another code.

    For your reference regarding the troubleshooting steps of not getting the verification code, please visit this link: https://support.microsoft.com/en-us/account-bil...

    Thank you for your cooperation.

    Microsoft verification codes not sending

    Hi, Rob!

    Thank you for the update and I apologize for the inconvenience this has caused you.

    Please try to open your email on a different device and check if you can get the verification code from there.

    If incase it won't work, please turn on your two-step verification by going to https://account.microsoft.com>;; Security> two-step verification> Turn on.

    When it is fully on, please test it out and sign in.

    If it will still not work, kindly restart the device. Let us turn off your two-step verification first before signing in.

    Sign in to https://account.microsoft.com>;; Security> two-step verification> Turn Off.

    Once done, kindly check if this method works.

    Thank you for your full cooperation and patience.

    Why wont the verification codes send?

    Hi Plex,

    Thank you for posting in Microsoft Xbox Community. I'm sorry to hear that you're having issues logging in to Minecraft. I understand that you don't receive the security code that's being sent to you. Are you referring to a mobile or email?

    If email, please check your junk email folder for a message from a Microsoft account, and use the code sent to you. Valid verification codes come from an @accountprotection.microsoft.com email address.

    Mark @accountprotection.microsoft.com as a trusted sender to receive your verification code in your inbox.

    Does your alternate email address end in @outlook.com, @hotmail.com, @live.com, or @msn.com?

    If so, you're using one Microsoft account to verify another Microsoft account. This can make it tricky to keep track of which one you're signed in to. When you sign in to the second account (to get the code sent to that email), most browsers automatically sign you out of the first account (the one that's actually requesting the code).

    To get your verification code:

    Using a browser in privacy mode, sign in with the first account. This lets you stay signed in to both accounts at the same time.

    When you're prompted to enter the verification code that was sent to your alternate email address, don't close the browser window.

    Open a new window in privacy mode. Ctrl + Shift + P is the shortcut for InPrivate Browsing in Microsoft Edge and Internet Explorer. If you're using a different browser, check that browser's help for info about privacy mode.

    In the new window, sign in to your alternate email account and look for the message from the Microsoft account team. Copy or write down the verification code from the message.

    Return to the window that is asking you for the verification code. Enter the code and follow the instructions.

    Regards,

    Alvaro
