My situation is that I had two-factor authentication (2FA) set up on the Microsoft Authenticator app to log into my school email. Unfortunately, my phone was reset, all of my data was lost, and I hadn’t turned on the cloud backup feature. (I’m so frustrated that Microsoft Authenticator disables backup by default!)

Now, I cannot log in without the code, there are no other login options available, and I cannot ask an administrator for help. Is there any way to resolve this situation?
