Forgotten Password

[Rusty]

What to do if you forgot your password and clicking "I've forgotten my password" does not send an email with your password?  

 

Hopefully this is easier than playing middleman.

Rusty, thanks for being the middleman. I hate computers.

Nerd recommended, nerd approved.

 

I have to keep track of 500+ passwords.  This is the only way I can do it.

Glad Tarhunt was able to get back on!  Without a valid email address bound to the account, the only other way would have been to reset it myself or change the email address.

 

As far as 1Password, I'd also recommend it!

Like HH I have wayyyy too many passwords to remember and 1Password allows me to not only keep track of all of them, but I can also make them extremely complex (long, lots of weird characters) to avoid any hacking attempts, etc.

1Password has a nice "autofill" feature, so you don't have to type them out all the time and you don't need to have your browser "remember" them (which is inherently unsafe if someone gets on your computer because they are easily accessed in plain text).
