So I go into electrum do a standard wallet recovery type in the 12 words, they all are auto filled, but after the last word it tells me it’s a 2FA wallet.
In Electrum, when you recover your wallet from seed phrase, you will have to do following steps.
Create new wallet
Type wallet file name
Choose what type of wallet do you want to create?
At this step, you have to choose one of following types.
Standard wallet
Wallet with two factor authentication
Multi-signature wallet
Import Bitcoin addresses or private keys
If you choose Standard wallet, in the recovery process, it won't turn to be 2FA wallet.
Okay so I go back and do 2FA recovery. I don’t remember setting up 2FA but it works
It won't work.
and I go to the next step, it asks for an Authenticator number, I open the Authenticator app and type in the number next to trustedcoin, says it’s the wrong number, click the button for a one time password, scan the qr, a new trustedcoin is added to my Authenticator and it works I’m in the wallet.
If you did not know how you set up your 2FA wallet, don't have back up, how did you recover it and say it works?
You only can turn off 2FA in your wallet and will get same wallet without 2FA.
After you input your wallet seed phrase, you will go to Restore 2FA wallet, there will be 2 options, Keep and Disable.
To turn off 2FA, choose Disable.
