0.4 -> hello everyone and welcome back this is paul from
tech link and i've been getting some comments from
5.52 -> you guys on my previous video on how to transfer
the google authenticator account from one phone
11.76 -> to another asking me what should you do if you
lost your phone or what should you do if your
18.16 -> phone is broken or whatever reason that how do
you lose your 2fa key and how you can recover
25.36 -> your google authenticator account well there is
a way to get it back and i'm going to show you
31.28 -> exactly how to do that in all the different ways
possible so make sure to stick around till the
37.68 -> end of this video to find out how to recover your
google authenticator key now first of all you're
44.08 -> going to need to log into your chrome browser on a
computer using your google account or if you don't
51.28 -> use chrome just open whichever browser you have
installed and go to google.com and sign in so we
60.08 -> are going to assume you know your google account
credentials after you do this you need to click
65.92 -> on your profile icon at the top right corner of
your screen and select manage your google account
73.52 -> you either need to go to the security tab and
click on two-step verification before we go any
82.8 -> further i just want to mention that in order
for this to work you need to have some kind of
87.84 -> recovery set up that allows google to verify it
is you who wants to access your authenticator
94.16 -> account like in my case i have a recovery phone
and email set so click on two-step verification
105.84 -> they will ask you next to enter your
password again in order to verify
110.08 -> that it's you so just insert
your password and click next
117.68 -> again they will need to make further checks and
they will ask for some way to verify your identity
124.56 -> now the easiest way to do this is if you have
another device where you are signing with your
130.8 -> google account this can be a phone or a tablet
obviously you don't have your main phone since
137.04 -> is lost or broken or whatever in my case i
have a secondary phone and i'm just going
143.92 -> to use that so press yes and you will receive
on your device a notification from the gmail
154.64 -> app where you have to press yes again and
select the number that you see on your screen
165.68 -> once you get beyond this step is very simple
you select change phone under the authenticator
175.12 -> app select the type of phone where you want to
restore your codes and press next i'm gonna go
183.68 -> for an android so next now on your new device
you have to install the authenticator app so
190.96 -> just go to play store or app store download it
and open it in here you have to tap this plus
198.48 -> icon and select to scan a qr code and
scan the code you have on your browser
208.72 -> and you will see the qfa codes showing up on your
screen which you can use to log into your google
214.72 -> account from any other device but as i mentioned
this is the easiest case for you to recover it
221.76 -> now let's assume you don't have a secondary phone
but like me you have set a recovery method using
228.08 -> your phone number or alternative email if you
lost your phone you should be able to recover your
235.2 -> number from your phone carrier so you can use this
method if you have an alternative email set you're
242.08 -> going to use that so we're going to go a few steps
back now and instead of using the first method
251.6 -> we are going to choose more
ways to verify so click next
261.36 -> click on more ways to verify and need more
help and on the next screen you should see
269.12 -> one of your alternative recovery ways
click on that and a code will be sent
279.04 -> next now i'm being asked to confirm it both ways
so they're going to send a call or code on my
290.08 -> phone number as well so i'm just going to
click try another way to sign in so send
302.24 -> and this is the code i received click next
307.76 -> and now you can access the two-step verification
where as i showed you previously you can change
313.52 -> your phone by following the same steps download
the app add an account and scan the qr code
321.68 -> in the third case let's assume you don't
have any of these recovery methods available
328.96 -> you just have to click next here
335.6 -> click on more ways to verify need more
help try another way to sign in and again
348.4 -> try another way in the end they will
send you an email with a link and
355.84 -> further instructions on how to reset your
password and recover access to your account
361.76 -> i hope this video was useful in which case i would
