Issue Summary
I have been happily developing away using localwp for about 3 months now.
The time has come to provide live links to the client for review/testing.
Local Hub asks for email/password and then does not recognize the email I used to set this up 3 months ago, or randomly asks for 2FA, which I never set up.
Today, I created a new account under a different email.
I can at least log in to create this trouble “ticket”.
But again, there is no way to log on to my local console to enable live links.
What am I missing and can you please assist?

Security Reminder
Local does a pretty good job of scrubbing private info from the logs and the errors it produces, however there’s always the possibility that something private can come through. Because these are public forums, always review the screenshots you are sharing to make sure there isn’t private info like passwords being displayed.
