i asked steam to remove my authenticator because the sda wouldnt let me disable it, because i had no access to my account

@Flopalott can you authorize new accounts now?

I'm trying to put sda on a new account on the server and I have an error. I don't know how to fix it

Im also encountering this error. Just got back an old account of mine, had removed the phone number and everything. Trying to setup a new number returns General Failure

First option: https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/download/details.aspx?id=42643 Second option: https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/download/details.aspx?id=40784 Third option: Disable Steam Family View. Fourth option: Too often in the last couple of hours you have tried to bind a phone number, wait a bit, you can also try to bind another number.
