Step 2: Select Subscribe on the “Let get started” page.

Step 5: Select Forgot my password.

Step 6: Select I forgot my password.

This will allow you to reset your password and reset expired passwords!

Step 7a: Enter your phone number or email.

This will send the verification code to the phone number or email you used when setting up the Remote Desktop for the first time.

Step 8: Approve Authenticator App notification.

This will send a notification to the phone you used when setting up the Remote Desktop for the first time, asking you to approve.

You need the Microsoft Authenticator App to perform this step, which can be found here. You can also search for 'Microsoft Authenticator' in your app store, in the event it was removed from your phone after the initial account setup.

Step 9: Enter new password.
