Microsoft 365 will ask for your mobile number, then send you an SMS message containing a 6-digit code to verify your device. The QR code has only appeared since WIN 11 and Office 365 were installed. If you would rather use SMS messages sent to your phone instead, select I want to set up a different method. If you don't have it installed there is a link provided to download it. If you have it installed on your mobile device, select Next and follow the prompts to add this account. The default authentication method is to use the free Microsoft Authenticator app.
