Hi!

I'm helping a friend with her computer and MS-account. When installing Windows 8.1 and in some other cases MS-account wants to verify your account by reentering your mail-adress and you should get a 4-digit code back to your mail. Now, my friend only has a Hotmail-adress registerd to her account, no other information. So when asking for verifying an e-mail adress she can only verify to her Hotmail. And the code doesn't show up. I suspect that you can't verify an account to itself so were stuck in a loop here. Does someone have a tips for this scenario?
