I received an authorization code sent to my email address when I was trying to log into my Firefox thing on my browser ( windows 10 ) I copy pasted the authorization number and it did not work, it rejected the authorization number as "wrong authorization info" - I tried again by pressing resend code and i entered the code myself manually one letter/digit at a time ensuring capital letters were capital and making sure it matched exactly what I received in the email as my auth code, it rejected it again and said it was incorrect

i’ve tried this three different times now and every time the auth code is sent to my email immediately but it is rejected when I enter it on the browser after logging in

when I put in my email address/password it allows it and then goes to the authorization page where it asks me to get the authorization code sent to my email and enter it there when I hit send I get the email and as soon as I receive the email I enter the authorization code and it is not accepted I do not understand for the life of me how I am getting a message telling me the authorization code is incorrect when I am 110% positive is accurate

there is no way what Im entering is inaccurate, I even tried copy pasting, and making sure there were no extra spaces before and after the auth code before I pasted it into the webpage please help
