On my HP desktop I delete my browser history regularly, yesterday I did so & now when I try to log in to my yahoo addy it tells me to check my email address at ****hotmail.com for code, I go there & nothing in there, not even in the spam folder. I tried uninstalling & reinstalling browser & doing a system restore but still no code. Any suggestions? This has been going on since yesterday, please help. I can access my yahoo addy on other devices & laptops, just my desktop won't let me

At times, we'll send a verification code or link to your mobile number or email address to protect your account and ensure that you're the person trying to access it. If the code or URL doesn't work or you don't receive it, review the following info to see what could be causing the issue.

It has to do with 2factor authorization I believe. If resetting to factory is the easier way to solve this headache, fine.
