I wanted to disable 2FA, I changed my cell phone and I no longer have access to 2FA

From v1.x. you can run this command to remove the 2FA:

`sudo yq e 'del(.user.totpUri)' -i ~/umbrel/umbrel.yaml`

Hi , What worked for me was this command here:

json\_file=“$umbrel/db/user.json” && contents=“$(jq ‘del(.otpUri)’ ${json\_file})” && echo “${contents}” | sudo tee ${json\_file}
