Register for Self-Service Password Reset (SSPR)
To use Self-Service Password Reset, ensure you have at least two alternate authentication options set up in your Microsoft Profile, aside from your password. This is typically done during the initial Microsoft Multi-Factor Authentication (MFA) enrollment.
It's a good practice to register alternate sign-in methods to ensure you can reset your password if needed.
You can view all your registered sign-in methods by visiting the Security Info section of your Microsoft profile.
