why can't thunderbird see my new google security key?
I have just added the titan security key to my Google accounts and now Thunderbird cannot login to my email account. I have tried re-adding the account to thunderbird but it seems it may require chrome on the backend for it to work? Does anyone have a solution?

Works on everything but thunderbird
it seems it may require chrome on the backend for it to work?
No. Why do you think it does?
Please post your Troubleshooting Information.
At the top right of the Thunderbird window, click the menu button 
, then select Help > Troubleshooting Information.
Press the "Copy text to clipboard button" and paste the information into your reply.
I think this because when I was adding my security keys to my google account it required the use of Chrome to do so. I was thinking maybe thunderbird was using firefox to do the Security key checking.

As per your Troubleshooting information your server settings look good. Your account is IMAP, and both, incoming, and outgoing server are set for OAuth2 authentication. So you should get the prompt to login to your Google account, as well as the prompt to enter your 2-step authentication code. Do you?
If so, try to allow cookies for https://accounts.google.com, or allow cookies altogether in Thunderbird.
My account is set to do the Titan security key only. I don't get any prompts. IT just spins looking for my security key and it wont work on this app only.
I unenrolled in advanced protection and i can now use it. Owell.
