Hackers keep getting prompting me for a code on authenticator
Hello, I'm noticing that I get a random prompt for a code on the Authenticator app whose location appears to be in the Netherlands. I'm under the impression that these hackers just try logging into numerous accounts hoping that their victims will unknowingly push on a confirmation number and let them in. Is there a way to help prevent this? I would imagine that preventing logins based on unusal locations would help stop it but would like to hear your take. Thanks!
Visual studio benefits for MCT
I renewed my subscription for MCT earlier this year but recently noticed that my visual studio benefits is not active. What i have is MCT subscription that has expired date of 23/May/2025 instead of Feb 2027. I reach out to VSS support, they mentioned that my subscription was removed for the benefits and they redirected me to MCT support via Pearson. Pearson sent me back to VSS support and it has been back and forth for a while. Does anyone have idea how to resolve this.
Can we get more guidance and feedback on the moderation being done on the messages
I have been an active poster on the Excel forum but every so often my posts will just disappear. Sometimes our message will be there but an attachment will be missing. Sometimes messages disappear but then show up hours or days later. Can someone PLEASE give us some insight into what is happening. Is this an auto-moderator or actual person? Either way can we please get a message informing us that our message is being held or rejected and why. How are we supposed to learn if we get no feedback. I don't appreciate spending time re-creating a worksheet (because these new posters aren't even allowed to attach their excel file for us to see) and then create a formula solution, write up how it works and then just have it all disappear. Makes me think Microsoft doesn't really care for me to help. And BTW, can you please revisit the reasoning behind not letting new accounts attach files. Is it a space/size issue? or is it a security issue? if the concern is space/size then make a limit on the file size. Security issue, make a limit on file types. All this tends to do is force members to ask the user to post the file using a file share service like onedrive, but if they use another service it can be a much larger security risk.
Question About Events, Azure, Copilot and Microsoft widgets
Hello! I am overly enthusiastic to learn more about this company, and I saw three events I'd like to attend in person as I cannot do anything online, I apologize. Does anyone know if there really is this Microsoft event on March 6th in Redmond? If not where is it as It is not coming up on the list or I cannot find it. I searched for azure events and about three came up, but after I scroll and the mouse timer comes up, nothing appears, is anyone interested in describing more about azure technology to me and how it works? I'll never tell! My last question is there is an event bsides seattle, I'm so confused is it at a hotel and how do you register because it's not listed on this platform. I wish I could do the online events like this was training, but it's better to do things in person always because it's more authentic. I tagged this as avatar, if you do not know anything about me just my love of tech what would my avatar be?
How to prevent SharePoint “Members” from approving documents?
Hi everyone, I’m facing an issue with the Content Approvals Teams feature in a SharePoint document library. I noticed that a user who is only a Member of the SharePoint site was able to approve a document, even though they should not have permissions to do so. The approval went through successfully, which is not the expected behavior. I would like to block site Members from approving documents and ensure that only a designated approver (or a specific approvers group) can approve items. I have already checked the Content Approval settings and Versioning Settings, but I’m not sure what I’m missing in the permissions configuration. My question: What is the correct way to configure the library or site permissions so that Members cannot approve documents? Any guidance would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!

Hello everyone, I recently acquired a 100% voucher for the GitHub exam. However, when attempting to schedule it on the Pearson VUE portal and apply the coupon, a message indicates that it’s not possible to apply this coupon because an MCT discount is already applied. Could anyone help me or direct me to someone who can assist? I don’t want to lose my MCT discount, but I need to apply this 100% discount coupon. How can I resolve this? Thank you, Luiz Andrade
