2. Under Additional Security, find the box that says Two-step verification and click on Turn on.

6. Next, a 6-digit TOTP code is generated. Click on the little Copy Icon next to it.

7. Paste it under no. 4 using the keyboard shortcut Ctrl + V on PC or Cmd + V on Mac and click on Next.

8. In the next window click on Next.
