[SOLVED] Enabling Two-factor authentication

[nbartolo7]

So, after i enable two step authenticator say for my Windows account, does that mean that original password no longer needs to be super difficult? Since whoever is trying to access will anyways need my phone to login.

No, you should always keep using a strong password (or even better, a passphrase).

I thought passwords did not allow spaces in between words.

Most passwords allow for almost any character these days. If they don't, it'll tell you. But at the end of the day, the actual human readable content doesn't matter since it's read as binary data.

I'm sure you could make a password out of a string of emoji if you could find a way to type that in.
