Sure

  • When you add security info, you must verify that you can receive a security code at that email address or phone number. If you skipped this step when you first set up your account, you'll need to do this when prompted.
  • If it’s been a while since you updated your security info, you may be prompted to sign in with your Microsoft account, add security info to your account, or verify the info in your Microsoft account.
  • Sign in to the security settings page with your Microsoft account email address and password. - https://account.live.com/proofs/manage

Let me know once done

  5. Select "Get code".
  6. Paste or type the code you received and select Next. On the next page, you will be offered to create a new password. Type your new password and select Next.
