I am trying to get Minecraft on my new computer, but I am unable to sign in to my account. I enter my email for my Microsoft account and Windows Security asks me to choose a passkey to sign in, instead of asking for my password. The two options it gives me are signing using a mobile device or using a security key on a USB. I have never set up any passkeys on my computer/phone nor own a physical passkey. I am able to fully sign into Microsoft, XBOX, and Minecraft through Chrome.
