Do you have 2-factor authentication enabled on your account, and did you install and activate the Microsoft Authenticator app on your mobile device so that you can receive the verification requests?

Worked for me, claiming on mobile. You can also choose to sign in via password, authenticator, etc

I have never heard of this app. Does anyone know if it's alternative to OneNote or is a completely different use?

Worthless offer because MS requires a verification code that they NEVER send to you. I can offer to give you a free 77 inch OLED TV and that would sound like an incredible offer but if I require you to have a verification code that I never send to you then it is just a fraud.

I popped open the MS Store app and found penbook via search. What do you know- it's free.

Related question... does anyone know if there's a 'Family Account' option for the MS Store?

I like 'buying' this stuff (esp. for free) on the Google Play Store (and similar with Apple's Family Sharing) and then adding it to my Family Library, so that my wife and kids can also have access to it.

Just wondering whether there was an equivalent for Microsoft.
(I'd like to [easily] give my son access to a few of my games and movies, and my daughter access to this)

I know there's Microsoft Family Safety, but I'm not sure that works similarly to Google's and Apple's family stuff, which allow you to actually share content.

The short answer is that there is and there isn't. Technically, there is. But realistically, there isn't because there's no way I can see to get it to work without you having physical access to the kid's computer. Here's the way I do it for the kids (the method is one the internet generally agrees is the way to do it): sign out of their account on the MS store, sign in as you, install the game/app, make sure it works (optional), sign yourself out, sign the kid in. Done.

I'm not sure with movies and such, mainly because the kids mostly only watch Movies Anywhere stuff, so those are available on their device of choice (usually a TV). However, last I checked (a year or two ago), there is no such option for family sharing.

The Pen 15 club is down due to the ligma vulnerability.
