Where are the settings?

Settings are located in the edit section of your profile

All was good until I got with no reason the Invalid Key error messague. I manague many websites and it was really painful to fix this error through all the websites. I have not changued the file nor open it, so I really don’t understand what I got this error messague. This was exactly why I wanted to try this pluguin because it different from the others WP2FA. I will update my review if this problem is fixed in the next update. Update: As promissed I updated my review and gave you 5 stars. I hope this bug will not occur in the future.
