Title: Turn off 2FA Post by: phenian on December 06, 2017, 04:04:39 PM Hopefully an easy one
Everything is working today and I have the seed. I have to return my work phone soon which has google authenticator on it. Before I do, how can I turn off 2FA and keep my btc? I guess I can always send them somewhere else but I would like to keep them in Electrum Thanks Title: Re: Turn off 2FA Post by: TryNinja on December 06, 2017, 04:29:32 PM It's easy and can be done if you have your seed. Just create a new wallet and choose the following:
Wallet with two-factor authenticator -> I already have a seed -> Paste your seed -> Disable; Now you can spend your coins without any 2FA code.

Using a "disabled" 2FA wallet is not meant as a long term solution, it is meant to be a recovery mechanism.
