Suzanne Lanoue (she, her, hers) 🤎🧡🩷❤️💗💖💜💝💘 (@slanoue2016) reported@Outlook How do we get support from a live person? Nothing is working. My husband can get on his Hotmail account on his phone, but it's not working on any of our laptops. He doesn't have MS Authenticator set up, and it's confusing as to how to do that. When we ask to send a code to his phone, it never arrives. He's not sure about his password. When he tried it, it said he was locked out. He doesn't have a security key, etc. When we tried phoning for help, the automated thing just sends us back to the Web. Please help! This is maddening.
