I would only recommend in browsers rarely used. So disabling Javascript in browser is a big no no. 
In this case, if you want to improve your digital security and the browser has add-ons, extensions, you could install for example NoScript, ScriptSafe or something (besides Adblock Plus and similar).
Too bad that IE, as well as Windows Phone, lack a lot of functionality and convenience. 
This is one of the reasons I do not regret getting rid of the iPad and iPhone 
(more cons than pros besides charging me US$ 1.00 for each freeware / free apps such as Firefox, Mercury, etc. after registering my financial data! 
), which have been replaced by Android.

Con: Meanwhile, Android has more interesting, varied and important Apps than Apple.

Pro: Apple has a better configuration than Android where all app settings are together. So, this gets more organized.
Con: However, App settings on iOS get a bit to be desired compared to the same Apps on Android.

Pro: Apple has a “perfect” Backup and Restore System, and better than Android.
Con: However, I’ve heard that this “perfect” Restore and Backup System works only with the same version of the Operating System iOS.

Please no offense to Apple fans. 
After all, I’ve been a former user of Apple products and migrated to Android.
Original Post
I thought I had posted criticisms of Microsoft 2-Step Verification here in this post... Ugh... Apparently, I was wrong... *shrug* However, Microsoft 2-Step Verification remains really unreliable and very problematic.
At that time, 30 days after contacting Microsoft, I was fortunately able to regain control of my Outlook Account (E-mails, Calendar and Contacts! *phew* *whew*).
Currently, Microsoft has problems with 02-Step Verification because I am often asked to validate my Account login, even though I have selected to keep the Account always on / active.
If this is not enough, when you are prompted for permission to the Microsoft Authenticator, this request is often not processed.
So the other way to access the account would be through the password. Even if the Browser has saved / stored credentials, access also fails. Another problem!
So anyway, after a few attempts via Microsoft Authenticator, it finally asked about the access permission or the (credentials) access password worked! Otherwise, even so, I decided to type the address even if previous access attempts failed. And is not it amazing that I was able to access my Account?
Interestingly, Dropbox, in the early days of the its 02-Step Verification, took a long time (about 10 minutes!
) to send the Verification Code via SMS. Now the system is really fast and reliable!
I have compiled a list of Services that allow 02-Step Verification:
