    2FA is not working properly


    TLDR is that i recently added 2FA to my account which prevents me from playing games through Xbox lots of the time i start my pc.Now i turned of 2FA and deleted the auto generating codes from my phone.I wanted to turn it back on but it didnt give me a new QR code for a new entry in an authentication app. How do i get a new QR code, because for now, i cant turn on 2FA safely because i dont have any code in an authenticator app i do have a back up code for the entire account if it is really neededEntirety of my previous support ticket:After adding 2FA to my account i have to log back into my s

    :)

    Authy Alternatives for 2FA?

    thanks again for the detailed replies. - - - Updated - - - i'm a bit confused about the bitwarden site, Field Guide to Two-Step Login | Bitwarden Help Center they suggest using Authy themselves, lol, but it seems to suggest the 2FA 6-digit code is only available on their mobile app? or do they mean you just need it on the phone to scan the QR?
