Pamiepage Posted December 25, 2021 Share Posted December 25, 2021 (edited) I joined in Oct, to play modded Skyrim. I got 6 codes to use and now have 1 left. I'm confused. If I get accidently logged out I have to resign in. It asks for 2fa or one of my codes. I just got new laptop for xmas and today I'm trying to get my nexus and vortex up. I finally got nexus to accept me but vortex wanted another code from nexus, which never came up. so I got logged out and had to use another code. I still can't get vortex. My question is what is 2fa code, Where to get a 2fa code? What is authenticator app? Where do I get authenticator app? It askes to me delete some code but when I go to do so, it warns me I'll not be able to get in without a password. How do I sign up a password? I see nothing to help me here. So sorry for being a dum dum. 70 yrs old and ill so not too bright anymore. Help will be appreciated. PamI have a password, but when I try to log in and use it, it still asked me for one of my codes. I'm down to 1 left now. why is not my password good enough? I have email, pw, and all that. I'm sooo confused. Update: Somehow I got to my account in nexus that had the api codes. I didn't get by clicking on my profile ect, but by accident from another page. I now have vortex showing my picture and looks like I'm logged in without the mods. It also says the api code didn't work and may be a temp problem. I'm wondering if I should log back out then. I don't know if my mods should be there or not and I have to reload them all. I'm going from playing on a desk top to my new laptop. Thanks for bearing with me, pls forgive me for being confused.

Pickysaurus Posted December 25, 2021 Share Posted December 25, 2021 Perhaps this help page will allow you to understand it better. Note that you must have had a 2FA app to even enable this: https://help.nexusmods.com/article/74-two-factor-authentication-for-nexus-mods If you've completely lost your 2FA, see this page: https://help.nexusmods.com/article/108-account-recovery Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
