 * Hello,
 * I can’t login with admin account, because google authentication blocks it.
    So,
   I’ve removed the plugin folder on server and delete all plugin tables in mysql.
   But after reinstall Shield, the google autentication is enabled again!!! Where
   can I disable the google authentication or reset the settings of Shield without
   wordpress access?!
 * Regards
    RSI
