Solved How to obtain a MS security code

I don't use metro, but there is this one app I really like.
So I want to buy it.
When I try this, I have to fill in my Email adress which for me is the preferred way to receive it.
I follow up all the instructions, fill in the right adresses and wait.....But I never get a code.
I've got a MS account.

Found one

Went through my old emails and found a code ms send me early on.
But it is not accepted.

Personaly, I find that computing should be fun, and this is too much a hassle for me.
I just don't want to use metro apps.

So, I don't know how, but I close this thread.
(I'll stick to the ipad version of this app)

Hello Paul,

You would need to be signed in to Windows with a Microsoft account to be able to purchase and/or download apps from the Store. The tutorial below can help show you more on the verify code.

Thanx Brink & Eight Forums Team.

I always use a local account on my win 8.1 machine.
Logging in with my MS account did the trick.

This gave another problem: unable to use the app in this local account, because it wasn't there.
Got this solved as well.

Thanx again.

Great news.
