Thanks for your reply and help. I will reread your post later today when I get opportunity to attempt a solution.
At this moment I really only 100% want two factor authentication for my work computer (laptop). This is a laptop that I do not own. It is also used for occasional travel. If something ever occurred where I lost control of this laptop, it would be good to have peace of mind that the logon can't be done without use of my cell phone in addition to a password.
Right now I think I am overwhelmed with the process of getting all of my data into the configuration. So I probably don't have a proper feeling for long term use of the feature. Once I get most of my passwords and data entered the process will likely be less stressful since I also do programming (on my daily job - with overtime) which combines to cause mind fatigue when adding new stuff I don't know well.
Thanks again for the advice.
