Hi Lori, 

 

Thanks for your recommendation. Actually I have 2 dropbox accounts: 1 normally used on my phone and another one (the one I am using to post here) is used on my laptop. So, I do not have connected device so that cannot disable 2FA.

 

Kindly advise how to do.

Did you follow the steps shown in the Help Center article I provided in my previous post?

    Hi Lori, 

     

    As mentioned in my previous post, I don't have connected device for that account, only logged in on my phone. Now I don't receive verification code to re-active my account and therefore, cannot disable 2FA

      Would it be okay for me to send an email your way, so we can have a closer look into this HTP? 

      Keep in mind that I'll be sending it to the email address linked to your Community profile.
