Hi Russell, you could go to Settings through this link Password & security (upwork.com) upon log in and answer the Security Question if you had setup using this method before, I hope this will help. Thank you! 

I was able to access my account by using the mobile app instead of the desktop website and make the necessary changes. Everything seems fixed now.

 

Thank you

Hi UpWork Team! I am experiencing the same issue. I needed to reformat my phone yesterday and so I lost my Google authenticator. Since then I cannot sign in to my account. Please help me on this. Thank you!

The issue seems to be resolved as long as I use an existing bookmark to
sign in.
But I can't get it to work on my phone, as it did before.
Which authenticator app is it? the Microsoft authenticator or the Google
Authenticator?! There are so many it makes me nuts! Thanks
