How to disable 2 step verification on yahoo mail

Disabling two-step verification (2SV) on Yahoo Mail is a bit of a process, but I'll guide you through it. Please note that you'll need to have access to the email account and the phone number associated with the 2SV setup.

Method 1: Disable 2SV using the Yahoo Mail website

  1. Sign in to your Yahoo Mail account.
  2. Click on your profile picture or avatar in the top right corner, then select "Account info" from the dropdown menu.
  3. Scroll down to the "Account security" section.
  4. Click on "Two-step verification" and then click on "Disable two-step verification".
  5. Enter your Yahoo ID and password to confirm.
  6. You'll receive a verification code via SMS or voice call. Enter the code to complete the process.

Method 2: Disable 2SV using the Yahoo Mail mobile app

  1. Open the Yahoo Mail app on your mobile device.
  2. Tap on the menu icon (three horizontal lines) in the top left corner.
  3. Tap on "Settings" and then scroll down to "Account info".
  4. Tap on "Two-step verification" and then toggle the switch to the "Off" position.
  5. You may be prompted to enter your Yahoo ID and password to confirm.

Method 3: Disable 2SV using the Yahoo Account Info page

  1. Go to the Yahoo Account Info page (https://info.yahoo.com/).
  2. Sign in with your Yahoo ID and password.
  3. Click on "Account security" and then scroll down to "Two-step verification".
  4. Click on "Disable two-step verification" and follow the prompts to complete the process.

After disabling 2SV, you'll no longer need to enter a verification code to access your Yahoo Mail account. However, keep in mind that disabling 2SV may compromise the security of your account, so it's essential to use strong passwords and enable other security measures, such as two-factor authentication (2FA), to protect your account.
