How to DELETE the authentication SMS when logging in to the Email box?

Priochischieck95 If 2-factor authentication is activated in MySwisscom, delete the number saved here under “Manage login” in the profile (see link), then under “Login modes” simply delete the number saved and click “continue”.

You must choose the second option of two-factor authentication, just the protected areas.

This avoids SMS to access Webmail.

I found it and was able to modify it.

Thank you for enlightening me.

Have a good week.

I must have accidentally changed the connection parameters to our account, with validation by SMS.

As we have two email addresses on the account, this poses a problem.

How to remove SMS validation and only keep the password?

@Fleufretau70 Hello

This happens in your Customer area (My Swisscom). Click on your Avatar which is located at the top right, a menu opens and click on “Manage Login” after opening the latter go to the right and open the “authentication” box two-factor" and deactivate it

Good morning,

since today, for no reason, I have a security text message that comes to my phone number when I want to connect to my bluewin email.

It’s something that I really like, but given that I’m sharing it with a second person, it doesn’t help at all.

Is it possible to disable this security?

If yes, how to do it?

Thanks everyone!!

@Fleprausio93 Hello

To deactivate double authentication with SMS You must go to your Customer Area (My Swisscom).

In the Customer area you must open the “Panorama” menu then go to the “Main functions” and click on “Show all”

From there is the section “My Profile” open the menu “Change connection method” and there on the far right is the tile “Login Modes” Two-factor authentication and activated only for protected domains. check the box "Only protected areas such as connection data or unusual connection attempts in MySwisscom. In this case an SMS will be received and not for opening the Webmail

Have a nice day Doremi

It’s perfect, thank you very much!!

For a few days, when I connect with my email, I am asked for a security code apart from my identification and my password. This security code appears on my cell phone.

I don’t want this extra system. What should I do if I want to enter my email on my laptop and I don’t have my cell phone handy?

I would like to return to the login system by identification and password

@Haufofock18 What you can do is set double authentication only for specially protected domains (invoice, private data, etc.), then this does not concern the E-mai account. You can do this in My Swisscom under “Manage login”.

[Manage login - My Swisscom](https://www.swisscom.ch/myswisscom/myprofile/manage-login?adobe_mc=MCMID%3D42168555733 068872101524087203929086645%7CMCORGID%3DA174401053C92A7E0A490D4C%2540AdobeOrg%7CTS%3D1681378374)

Or they completely delete the phone number stored there, but this comes at the expense of security.

Hello @Haufofock18,

Have you managed to adjust the settings in your My Swisscom account as suggested by @Gaeilgeoir? If necessary, you will find additional information about 2-factor authentication in this [article](https://community.swisscom.ch/t5/Base-de-connaissances-Internet/Authentification-%C3%A0- 2-factors-better-lock-2-times/ta-p/741665).

Have a nice weekend
