Password error

[PipoDj]

Hello everyone. Have you experienced this before or is it just me. I have recently activated the two-step verification for my Microsoft account. So all is going very well, the authenticator app doing a pretty good job of providing regular codes. but then when i woke up this morning to check if there are new emails in my phone, i find none so i opened the email tile and viola! it says my Hotmail password is incorrect and is prompting me to re enter my password. I did, but it doesn't do anything! it keeps asking me to re enter my password. What is wrong???:unhappysweat:

You need to go to accounts.live.com and create an "app password" thats the only way you'll get it to work on items such as the phones that dont support 2 factor Authentication.
