If you recovered the Electrum seed, you should have access to all your private keys. Just generate a bunch of them again. You can also back up the 2FA QR code next time and store it (preferably encrypted) somewhere safe next time. Title: Re: Remove 2FA Post by: NorrisK on August 30, 2016, 08:02:29 AM Just use the passphrase to restore a wallet WITHOUT 2fa first.
If you do this, you will have full access to the coins in your new wallet. You can then create a new 2fa wallet later if you want and transfer the coins there. Title: Re: Remove 2FA Post by: Disbeliever on June 04, 2017, 03:06:05 PM Ok, I'll up the old theme so to not create newone.
How can I remove 2fa from the wallet I have some btc up, I mean when I was creating it I choosed 2fa, but there where no information that it will cost me ridiculous 5$ per transaction. I tried to restore from seed choosing no 2fa wallet but it seems not working coz I get endless "Please wait.." on the last step, so what should I do?

Note that the current price per transaction is 0.2 mBTC or 0.1mBTC, depending on how many you prepay (10 or 100). This is lower than your typical mining fees. Title: Re: Remove 2FA Post by: Disbeliever on June 05, 2017, 06:34:01 PM I've solved the problem by downloading portable version. I recovered from the seed, chose not 2fa wallet, got asked whether I really want to create not 2fa wallet.(funny that I did it twice and 1st time got the same endless "Please wait.." )
Also to be noted on the top line it still shows "default_wallet 2fa", though I chose another wallet name and it doesn't ask for a 2fa fee. |
