How can I stop my acct from forcing a password change

★★★ Newbie

I have just about had it.  Is there anyway to disable my acct being reset from unknown logins.  I truly dont give a flying F if someone gets in.  I want to know if theres somewhere I can go to disable it.  I need it to stop.  I dont want to enable cell phone tow factor, I dont want an alternate email address I need for it to just Fin stop!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Hi there, @ZMcybsZM.

 

The only way to get this to stop is to set up two factor authentication. It should only take a minute. You can find out more about this here. Thanks!

I read the whole thing. This is why I stressed that the only way to get this to stop is to use two factor authentication. If you don't want to set that up, this issue will persist.

 

Something that may help, but will take just as long to set up, is to create a new eMail address. That way, it's one that nobody should know so they wouldn't be trying to gain access to your account. That should work for a little while at least.

You can't disable the notices, but you can stop them from happening. It takes only a minute, but if that's not something you want to do, this issue will persist.

There are different methods for two factor authentication. You can be sent text, you can use the google authenticator app (most secure method) or be sent an email. Without TFA, your account is going to be very susceptible to being hacked and you will continue to experience the notifications.

Not going to keep going back and forth with this bs.  I cant make you stop forcing password resets therefore I just have to deal.
