Disabling olf 2FA authentication and re enabling with new TOPT apps

I recovered my account using a backup code and set a new password. Two-step authentication is enabled but I don’t have the linked TOTP app. The settings UI does not allow disabling 2FA and does not offer backup code input. I still have unused 10-character backup recovery codes. Please advise.

Are you sure about that? You can disable 2FA in account's settings, I was using it few times. Please check again.

I retried to disable again after about 12 hours and I was able to disable and enable it again. Thanks.
