I am starting to use quicken and I am not so comfortable adding all my bank account and credit card login information before I set up 2 step verification so I can protect myself from someone just getting my Quicken credentials and gain access to all my accounts, please if you can help me set this up.

Thank you :)

    Hi @Shimon

    Unfortunately, Quicken does not have two-step verification for using Quicken online.  I would therefore suggest that you not use Quicken Online if you are concerned about the security of your financial information.

    Is the 2 step verification available on the Windows desktop app?

    Hi again, @Shimon,

    No, the desktop application has password protection, but doesn't have two factor authorization to access it, but - as I am sure you know -  the potential for an outsider to hack your desktop is significantly less than an online app.
