Hi. I would like to turn off MFA for the admin user in my vendor instance provided to me as part of inclusion in the TPP program. For the life of me I cannot figure out how to do this.
I've gone to the user admin section and it says it's not active (at least I think so)
I've made sure it's not turned on in the admin role (at least I think so)
In the "Related Links" page that points to >Multi-Factor Authentication and I'm expecting to see a button that says disable MFA, but it's not there.
This article seemed the closest, but I'm still not (apparently) finding what I need):

If anybody could point me in the right direction I would be incredibly appreciative.

Can you navigate to System Definition --> Plugins. Search for "Integration - Multifactor Authentication plugin" and see if it is installed or not?

So yeah, I did do that and it does appear to be installed. But I'll check again and attached a screenshot here.

Just to close this thread off. When I checked on a different vendor instance I was able to turn off MFA without issue. I'm going to chalk this up to 'ghost in the machine' stuff. I had SNOW support zBoot that instance.
Thx Muhammad for the help.
