Troubleshooting interrupt mode

Symptom Troubleshooting steps
I'm not seeing the methods I expected to see. 1. Check if the user has a Microsoft Entra admin role. If yes, view the SSPR admin policy differences.
2. Determine whether the user is being interrupted because of multifactor authentication (MFA) registration enforcement or SSPR registration enforcement. See the flowchart under "Combined registration modes" to determine which methods should be shown.
3. Determine how recently the MFA or SSPR policy was changed. If the change was recent, it might take some time for the updated policy to propagate.

Troubleshooting manage mode

Symptom Troubleshooting steps
I don't have the option to add a particular method. 1. Determine whether the method is enabled for MFA or for SSPR.
2. If the method is enabled, save the policies again and wait 1-2 hours before testing again.
3. If the method is enabled, ensure that the user hasn't already set up the maximum number of that method that they're allowed to set up.

How to require user to re-register for multifactor authentication

  1. Sign in to the Microsoft Entra admin center as at least an Authentication Policy Administrator.
  2. Browse to Users, and select the user whom you want to re-register MFA.
  3. Click Authentication methods, and click Require re-register for multifactor authentication.
  4. Click OK to confirm.
