Disable two-factor authentication (2FA)
This guide explains how to disable two-factor authentication, also known as 2FA or two-step verification, for logging into Infomaniak Manager (manager.infomaniak.com) or Infomaniak Mail (mail.infomaniak.com).
For security reasons, Infomaniak's support will never disable a login validation method enabled on an account following a simple request. It is imperative to follow the procedures below.
Disable 2FA
If two-step verification is enabled and you want to disable it:
- Log in with your usual credentials on the page manager.infomaniak.com/2fa
- Click the Remove button to remove the security
- Enter the password to log into your account
In case of issues
Obviously, the above procedure requires one last login with two-factor authentication in order to then disable it.
If you have no access to the kAuth application or the device receiving the validation SMS, there is no need to call Infomaniak; in this case, you will have to provide a certain number of security elements manually or via the Infomaniak Check app (kCheck) to regain access to your account:
- Go to the login page for Infomaniak Manager (manager.infomaniak.com) from a web browser like Brave or Edge
- Enter the username and correct password
- When prompted for additional authentication, click on alternative methods:
- Choose to enter one of your emergency codes if you downloaded the sheet when activating 2FA:
- Otherwise, select the last choice for requesting assistance to reach the form to submit your identity documents and recognition selfie:
- Follow the procedure to the end and wait:
