@freemo could you please look at the 2FA setup for the Nextcloud server when you get a chance? It gave me a weird message that 2FA was configured but not enabled, so I can't log in except with recovery codes (of which I have only a limited number); and now that I'm logged in, I don't see any settings to reset or disable it. Thanks!

@khird How urgent is it? I may have some time tomorrow evening to check it out, please remind me in a day or two as i might forget and will have more time but ill try to remember.

@freemo it's not especially urgent - a day or two would be a comfortable timeframe, and a week workable. My concern is that if I have to keep using up my recovery codes to access it, I'll eventually lock myself out completely. I don't expect that to happen within a week.

@khird You can generate new recovery codes... but ill take a look soon if i dont forget, keep bugging me as i have a lot on my plate and dont want to forget to do it.

@freemo could you please screenshot where the option to generate new codes is? I went hunting through the settings menus but couldn't find anything. If there's a workaround like that available, then I can manage as-is indefinitely and you can tackle the underlying problem at your leisure.

@khird Off hand I have no idea, I just assume there must be a way... ill look around...

@freemo Hi just following up here - I'm still unable to log into Nextcloud using 2FA. Here's a screenshot of the error message I get, in hopes it may be useful.

@khird Ok ill check within the hour, thanks for reminding.

@freemo I know you have it working now - but in case it matters, my username there is also khird. My login credentials are email + password, so I never had my username memorised and couldn't recall if it was khird or kyle.
