I am unable to access my business account on Microsoft 365 because I lost my Authenticator application. I have reached out to Microsoft through multiple channels, but have been unsuccessful in getting assistance due to the lack of email support and unhelpful automated helpline. As the Authenticator app is the only access point available to me, I need help on how to retrieve my account access with it. I still remember my ID and password, and no one else has access to the account.

    Hello Ishan, Have you tried aka.ms/mysecurityinfo? If your authenticator app was deleted recently, but you still have the session in your browser, you can copy and paste aka.ms/mysecurityinfo delete the MFA method and set it up again.
