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

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...

Just to confirm, if you go to the spam / junk folder are you not able to see the email?

If not, you may need to reach minecraft support to see if there is a different way to validate your identity in order to start the migration process
