Well if you had funds on electrum wallet before bch fork, the easiest way to claim your bitcoin cash is:

1) Head to https://electroncash.org/ and download electron cash;

2) Proceed to install the software and run it

3) Create a new wallet -> standard wallet -> i already have a seed (paste your electrum seed)

4) Check your balance and enjoy


I tried this but I can't do step 3. because If I enter my Electrum seed into Electrum Cash, the "Next" button is greyed out. I am stuck and can't proceed.

To double check my seed, I went to Electrum wallet, then Wallet -> Seed but the "seed" link is greyed out?

Let me elaborate, last week, I tried to log into my my Electrum wallet and it asked for my 2FA, but when I created the wallet it was not a 2FA. So I created a new wallet (within Electrum) and successfully made it 2FA and is showed the correct BTC amount. So, maybe a 2FA wallet does not contain the seed, by construction? I saved the seed on paper, I know it's correct because I am very careful.
