  The two-steps authentication is not possible to disable!
  I tried about 10 times, it tells ok/disabled but when I log-out and log-in it asks me for verification code again! :-((

  Please help – HOW TO DISABLE IT?

  The main problem – all the backup codes are for one usage only! That is very bad. Very inconveninent! I cannot take lot of papers with codes all the time with me!

  PLEASE – FIX THAT STUPID BUG! PLEASE MAKE POSSIBLE TO DISABLE TWO-STEP AUTHENTICATION!

  Thank you.
  Resetting password works fine.
  As I can see two-step authentication now is disabled. Nice.

  I did what was described above by timethief and it does not work for me. When I submitted my form it said to change my password. When I changed and reset my password, I still had to enter an authentication code to sign in. I want the 2 step authentication disabled from my account. PLEASE HELP!!!

  Yes and it worked. Thanks so much! 2 step authentication is way too stressful and very inconvenient.
