Unable to login to store - lost recovery app key and recovery codes

[benekommurse]

I never really did anything with my store and would like to cancel my account.  Unfortunately, I am being prompted for authentication app codes and recovery keys which I no longer have.  I created this account Removed just so that I could contact support.  The store associated with Shopify is linked to Removed.

Hi @benekommurse,

Ted here from Shopify, thanks for posting your query!

Since you are not receiving the auth code and don't have the recovery codes on hand - I'll email you now privately to authenticate a few details and help you log back into the account. 

Just as well if you ever need to contact our support but can not sign in as the account owner, you're welcome to sign in as a guest instead as shown in this short video. Our support can always authenticate the account later if needed. Our Facebook and Twitter support are also available 24/7 if you would prefer. 

If there is anything else I can help you with, please let me know, I'm happy to help!

Many thanks,

Hi!

I took a ¨break¨ from shopify a few months ago. But i would like to launch my store again. But I dont have my recovery codes or app key. Is there anyway you could help me get into my account.

Hi @marijesourfield,

Thanks for reaching out and I'm delighted to hear you're back on board! 

To help you log back into the account, we will need to verify ownership which can no longer be done through our Forum Community. When you have a moment please email our support and sign in as a guest here for further assistance. 

If there is anything else I can help you with, please let me know, I'm happy to help!

Talk soon,

Hi Ted,

Similar to a few of the other posts, I have lost access to where my previous login authentications were. I have my normal log in and access to email

Hi, @hizzy and @DME22!

I'm assisting Ted today, and I'm happy to provide you with some next steps. 

If you're unable to log into your Shopify account due to an issue with two-factor authentication, you can use this link to get in touch with us, without needing to log in. If you're having any trouble starting a chat, I recommend using that same link in an incognito window. Once you're connected with us, we'll verify your identity and assist you with getting back into your account!

Please let me know if you have any other questions about this process.
