      Hello @leocg Can you check why Opera does not accept authentication codes?

        @mrbrowser Are you using the same authenticator that was used to enable second factor authentication?

          @leocg Yes. Even with a new account in Opera, I tried to activate two-factor authentication, and after scanning the barcode in Google Authenticator, Opera does not accept the codes.
          My phone's Google Authenticator version is 5.10

            @mrbrowser So you tried to associate your new account with the Google Authenticator and it didn't work?

            It's a new Google Authenticator installation? If so, then you lost access to your old account unless you have a backup code.

              Q1: Yes. / I tried with the latest version of Google Authenticator, but the codes are not accepted!
              Q2: No!

              My version of Google Authenticator is a bit old, but when I update it, the program stops working and "Unfortunately App has Stopped" message is show.

                @mrbrowser Can you check with a different authenticator and see if it works?

                  @mrbrowser So you already had Google Authenticator associated with your old account?

                            @leocg Why Opera does not accept any Authenticator code, I tried to activate it with two different app. Wow, this problem still exists.

                              @mrbrowser I use Microsoft authenticator and had no problems with the 2FA codes.
