 * Awesome plugin BTW
 * we are able to register new users even with the error below but inquiring about
   the error? Plugin and all users have not used TFA plugin prior to php 7.2
 * This is an error we are getting from a page we created for registering new users
   that uses the shortcode [twofactor_user_settings] and error only triggers when
   clicking reset private key not landing on the page.
 * TFA decryption failure: was your site migrated to a server without mcrypt? You
   may need to install mcrypt, or disable TFA, in order to successfully decrypt 
   data that was previously encrypted with mcrypt., referer:
 * WP5.2.1
    php 7.2.18-1+ubuntu18.04.1+deb.sury.org+1
 * Since mcrypt is deprecated as of 7.2 wpengine will not allow or engage as the
   encryption libraries are a few years old and not been updated?

 * Hi,
 * Thanks for the report. This is a cosmetic bug; you should find it fixed if you
   update to the just-released version 1.5.2.
