Run Microsoft Authenticator on PC

Microsoft Authenticator is a Business app developed by Microsoft Corporation. BlueStacks app player is the best platform to play Android games on your PC or Mac for an immersive gaming experience.

Microsoft Authenticator is the ultimate solution for all your online security needs. With multi-factor authentication, passwordless, or password autofill, you can rest assured that your online accounts are protected and secure. Plus, with additional account management options for your Microsoft personal, work, or school accounts, you can easily manage all your online activity in one place.

Multi-factor authentication provides an extra layer of security that you won’t find with other authentication methods. With Microsoft Authenticator, you’ll enter your password, and then you’ll be asked for an additional way to prove it’s really you. This can be done by either approving the notification sent to the app, or by entering the one-time password (OTP) generated by the app. 

The one-time passwords (OTP codes) have a 30-second timer, so you never have to use the same time-based one-time password (TOTP) twice, and you don’t have to remember the number. Plus, the OTP doesn’t require you to be connected to a network, and it won’t drain your battery.
