How can I disable 2 step Verification on Thunderbird

I have been trying and trying for hours to remove the 2 step verification from my computer. Every time I open my email I put in my password and then a minute later I get the message 'Sending of password for user *my username* did not succeed. Mail server *Server name* responded: Authentication failed.' Then it asks me to enter a new password or retry. But, clicking either option will just cause the entire thing to repeat itself. I'm sick and tired of not being able to get my messages on my computer and just and to get rid of the 2 step Verification. And, please, I'm not a computer person, I need STEP by STEP instructions on how to do this.

Let's continue there instead.
