The app generates codes for two-factor authentication use. Many web services support 2FA to add another layer of security to the user authentication process. Today, it's the turn of an equally simple Windows app called WinOTP Authenticator. It is a UWP app, and hence exclusive to Windows 10.

Modern Authentication thunderbird beta office 365 smtp folders server junk mail sent items deleted configure OAuth2 2 factor Authentication 2FA Whitepages campus directory Suggest keywords Doc ID: 102005. Thunderbird does support 2FA (Authentication method = OAuth2). If you add a Gmail account, for example, it opens a browser window for you to follow the usual login process, including whatever 2FA you have configured. Hotmail/Outlook doesn't seem to support OAuth2, but they do support app passwords. Thunderbird is NOT storing the new OAuth2 token properly anymore that it receives from Google so the authentication continues to fail. It appears they implemented 2FA which seems to work properly with physical security keys now but still there's a token issue.
