If you want to use personal access tokens in github, is it true that this is only possible when you also have two-phase authentication installed?

I work on Windows and after filling in my access token in the password field (twice) when I did a git push to one of my repositories, the git push succeeded , but only after I had installed two-phase authentication before that; otherwise it didn't.

Also then I see an entry git:http://github.com in Windows Credentials.

I use PAT and haven't 2FA
