How to set in options in Steam that my account doesn't ask me for that fucking annoying authenticator code each time I want to log on my acc?

Cause I switch several times each day between two accounts. And this is so motherfucking annoying, having to grab my phone every single time and then type in that stupid auth. code....


Just, how to change that? To my account remember NOT TO ask me anymore for code on this computer?

Anyways just for your convenience I'll quote the steps that it takes to fix the issue. (Note that the issue were 2 accounts, 1 for each sibling so I think the fix might work for you)
Luaan's Answer to the link wrote:

You say you both use the same Windows account.

Create a new account for your brother. Login to steam with his account information. Sign in back as your shared account. Create a new shortcut to steam and change the command to

%windir%\system32\runas.exe /user:YourBrothersWindowsAccount /savecred Steam.exe

(make sure to use the full path to Steam.exe from the original shortcut)

Now, when your brother wants to use his Steam account, all he has to do is close Steam, and run it again through this shortcut.

Do note that Steam will use the new windows profile, so if your brother has games that store configuration or saved games in the user profile, he will need to copy them over to the new account.
Also consider what another user said:
Each steam instance using an own windows profile to store savegames is actually quite useful, because it prevents the two users from accidently overwriting each other's savegames when they play the same game.
Hope this helps,

Rally.

Sandy is a rich ni66a

OT: You can't run mobile authenticator on multiple accounts.
- You can remove it but you cannot trade without it (I don't think you can at least)
- You can remove it but your account is less secure

- I've removed mine just because every time I change ROM on my phone or there's something that I want to change it always signs me out and I have to do the whole adding process again - I use the email codes on a separate email for everything else.
