The one major difference between logging in through the 2-factor and Captcha, versus popping it open via the "Open Management Console" shortcut from TeamViewer client: The login timeout. If I log in manually, I can come back throughout the day and my session seems to remain open for MUCH longer without finding I've been timed out. If I use the shortcut from the client, the timeout is very short and I am constantly having to go open it again from the shortcut. The timeout is annoying enough that I've gone back to the Captcha nonsense because at least that is a once-daily annoyance vs many times a day having to sign back in from being timed out. Overall, I do not like this being forced upon us without configuration. I already set up 2-Factor authentication. I already added this device as a trusted device to my account. You can certainly store a cookie in my browser noting that I checked the box to "Keep me signed in". There is already multiple ways I have asked that you remember ME on THIS browser. The Captcha on top of ALL of that is NOT welcome. The Captcha should only be presented to NON-Trusted devices, when a cookie does not yet exist, when someone has not yet checked the "Keep me signed in" box.
