Changes for Windows Users

Outlook 2016

Outlook 2016 is the only Outlook version that supports Multifactor Authentication. If you have a Drexel‐owned device you can install it by going to Software Center. For personally-owned devices, install the latest Office version (for free) by going to https://portal.office.com and sign in your Drexel account.

Set Up Microsoft Authenticator App

The Microsoft Authenticator app is our recommend method for setting up multifactor authentication because it provides the most secure sign-in experience. Once installed, you will be prompted to authenticate the app with your account:

1. Enter your Drexel password, select Sign in, then select Set it up now.
   
   
   
   
2. Select Mobile app. Next, launch the Authenticator App on your phone, tap the +, and then SCAN the QR code in the Verify dialog box. Select Receive a notification on my phone, then select Next.

Set Up an Alternate Method of Authentication

1. As an alternate method of authentication, select your country and enter your phone number, then select Next. Check the box to Allow my organization to manage my device, then select Yes.
   
   
2. Enter your Drexel password, then select Sign in. Select Next, and follow the remaining steps on your phone.
