Password + 2FA (Authenticator app)
Use this if you already have 2FA (an authenticator app) turned on for your Discord account.
As mentioned earlier, you first need to remove 2FA from Discord and add it back, then log in to Nighty again. Follow every step in order.
Open your authenticator app (for example, Google Authenticator) and delete your Discord account from it.
Double check if 2FA was removed from your Discord account.
You may be locked out of your Discord account if you remove 2FA from your authenticator app before disabling it on Discord.
Before removing it from your authenticator app, verify in Discord that authentication is password-only and MFA is disabled.
Make sure 2FA is removed from your Discord account and remove it from your Authenticator app as well - to avoid mistakes in the future.
Add 2FA back and save your key
Back in Discord, click Enable Authenticator App.
Find the option for manual entry (the text key) and copy that key into Notepad. Keep Notepad open, you'll need this key soon.
⚠️ Save the manual entry code! You will need it soon.
Now scan the QR code with your authenticator app to add Discord back to it (standard procedure).
Finish the process on Discord by entering the 6-digit code from your authenticator app when it asks. Click Activate to Activate 2FA on your Discord account.
Log back in to Nighty
Because you turned 2FA off and on, your Discord token changed. Nighty will notice this and ask you to log in again.
Open Nighty.
Log in with your preferred method.
If you're not sure how, see the First Launch guide.
Note: If you don't want to create a new app simply close the Create Application popup and click on your previous application.
