Deleted my work account from my Authenticator App because it was not working and now I cannot login in my web apps, every web app asks for Authenticator approval. Then when I try to add the work account in my Authenticator app, the Authenticator App asks for approval from the Authenticator App !!! As weird as it sounds! So, I am in a kind of loop. The only options Microsoft authentication offers me are for the Authenticator App, which is not available. Can you help me, please ?

Microsoft Authenticator
Microsoft Authenticator
A Microsoft app for iOS and Android devices that enables authentication with two-factor verification, phone sign-in, and code generation.

    You'll need to choose sign in another way then reset the account two factor.
