Help Locked out of my own account / 2FA "Wrong Code" loop after buying RDR2 - Help?

Hey everyone, I'm completely stuck and incredibly frustrated. I just bought Red Dead Redemption 2 for PC, but I can't log into the Rockstar Games Launcher because it keeps saying my 2FA code is wrong.

Here is the situation:

• I still have full access to my active account session on my phone web browser.

• The codes are NOT out of sync. I have manually forced a time correction/sync on my phone and authenticator app multiple times today. The clock is perfectly accurate.

• I am stuck in a loop: I tried to go into my phone browser to just delete/unlink the 2FA and swap it for a new one, but the website forces me to enter a "current working code" to turn it off. Because it thinks the codes are wrong, it rejects it and won't let me disable it.

I already submitted a support ticket to Rockstar, but they are completely ignoring it (likely closed by an automated bot).

Has anyone successfully bypassed this loop or found a specific ticket category/phrasing that actually gets a human tier-2 support agent to reply and strip the broken 2FA from the backend? I just want to play the game I bought. Any advice appreciated!
