Digging deeper, I notice I registered my house phone number, not my cell number with Microsoft.

Now I need a code from a cell phone from Microsoft to get back into my computer.

I change Microsoft registration phone to my cell phone and now Microsoft says I need
to wait 30 days for security reasons.

I this normal procedure?
Can I call Microsoft to get my code sooner?

jI would be much more concerned about no longer being able to login using the normal ways. I would have your PC checked for a virus ro malware, IMHO, it sounds like someone has managed to take control of your PC.
