When I try to log into my account, a code from the Authenticator app is requested. But when I try to log into the Authenticator App to get a code, the Authenticator App itself is requesting a code from the Authenticator app. This is going in circles and I cannot recover my account.
The resolution is to disable two factor authentication. However, if I cannot log into my account, how do I disable two factor authentication?
