 * I installed Two Factor, and setup Google Authenticator as the primary method.
 * It worked great until I tried to log in a few hours later — now it says “Your
   session has expired because it has been over 60 minutes since your last login.”
 * I try to log in again, get to the code entry, enter the code, and then it gives
   me the error above again.
 * Any idea what might be happening?

 * [@ecastro01](https://wordpress.org/support/users/ecastro01/) The Two Factor plugin
   doesn’t check for session expiry.
 * Could it be that you have the WordPress Defender plugin installed? I found [this forum thread](https://premium.wpmudev.org/forums/topic/defender-is-blocking-access-to-my-site-when-using-a-concrete-user).
