Describe the problem/error/question

Yesterday I activated the 2FA authentication on my account.

Today I tried to log in and the codes generated by Proton Pass in my web browser plugin were not valid. First time this happens to me.

Had to use the recovery codes to enter and deactivate the 2FA for the moment.

What is the error message (if any)?

The codes are invalid.

It sounds like Proton Pass might be having a temporary issue. Have you tried generating a new 2FA code in Proton Pass to see if that works? If not, clearing your browser cache and cookies for Proton Pass could also help.

Hello @achamm , and thanks for your time.

I solved the problem, it was related with time mismatch in my mobile phone. I was delayed about 1min and many times the code wouldn’t work.

Solved by synching time in my mobile, from where the codes were coming from.

Thanks!
