I have to use certain Microsoft apps for work, so I strictly only use the web versions as I am on Linux. However, just seen this setting pop up in Word while working on a document. I wonder what in specific they would change, considering i am on Firefox. Does anyone know anything about this? Is there an actual good reason for me to allow this, and if did what would it change?

    Dont know in this case (which is part of the problem indeed) but sometimes account access is to make the device itself “the second factor” which reduces nag-screens asking for codes or other 2fa time and again.
