hello, I would like to enable 2 factor authentication on btc-e, I have a windows phone and found the app for it, however I was wondering is there any way to save the file or something which would still allow me to access it if for example I loose my phone? what if I enable 2 factor autentication and register it with my phone and someday I loose my phone? how would I be able to access the website then? thank you!

Save a screenshot and get the key when you enable the 2 factor authentication. So if you lose your phone, you can always scan the QR code or type in the key again on your new phone.
