Can we also take a moment to assign partial blame to Microsoft for this situation? Their authentication is a shambles, they try to force you to use their app rather than other 2FA providers and heavily steer you towards having to install Microsoft apps.
And that's if you're lucky and they arbitrarily don't mandate a phone number and an email address for a corporate account. Oh and the email address can't be the primary corporate domain that owns the account because of course what we need is personal emails to authenticate business accounts.
Lord help you if you were ever an early adopter of an onmicrosoft.com domain. You will remain in purgatory until you wipe your accounts and start again.
