      @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.
