[WPCentral Question]

Microsoft wants to send me a security code. And the telephone number is incorrect.

How can I change this number?I simply have not been able to find a place to change the number. The pop-up says "Call us over-protective" But all that seems to be protected is how to contact Microsoft!

For me, I login to https://account.live.com and under Security & Privacy, select Managed Advanced Security. In there I can set the phone number(s) that can be used to receive codes.
