Configure the 2FA again freshly by removing the old one.

How?

Hi @KilerBots ,

If you have lost your 2FA credentials you can use your recovery codes (which are stored in a txt file that you can download when you configure 2FA authentication), take a look at this from the docs:

• Recovering your account if you lose your 2FA credentials

Hi @davevad93,

I lost my MFA code from my authentication app, I can't access the account because I don't have the recovery codes. I need to recover my account as I have commercial projects. Is there any way to recover? I also no longer have access to the computer I used to use.

Hey @D2nke , in your case I think you should contact support by opening a ticket here , select Two-factor authentication recovery or Sign-in, verification or other account questions and explain your issue.
