      1. \n
        \n

        Step 1.<\/h3>\n

        Log out of your ChatGPT account<\/h3>\n<\/div>\n

        \"\"<\/p>\n

        You\u2019ll need to be logged out to change your password. If you can\u2019t log into your account in the first place, then just skip this step.<\/p>\n<\/li>\n

      2. \n
        \n

        Step 2.<\/h3>\n

        Click Log in on the ChatGPT login site<\/h3>\n<\/div>\n

        \"\"<\/p>\n

        You should be automatically redirected to the OpenAI login page after you\u2019ve logged out. From here, select Log in.\u00a0<\/p>\n

        If you aren\u2019t automatically redirected, or you never needed to log out, then visit the OpenAI homepage and select Log in from there.<\/p>\n<\/li>\n

      3. \n
        \n

        Step 3.<\/h3>\n

        Enter the email address registered to your account<\/h3>\n<\/div>\n

        \"\"<\/p>\n

        Make sure you still have access to this email address, otherwise you won\u2019t be able to follow the steps.\u00a0<\/p>\n

        Once you\u2019ve entered your email address, click Continue.<\/p>\n<\/li>\n

      4. \n
        \n

        Step 4.<\/h3>\n

        Select Forgot Password<\/h3>\n<\/div>\n

        \"\"<\/p>\n

        Just above the green Continue button, you\u2019ll see Forgot Password?<\/p>\n<\/li>\n

      5. \n
        \n

        Step 5.<\/h3>\n

        Select Continue<\/h3>\n<\/div>\n

        \"\"<\/p>\n

        Check your email address is correct and then select Continue.<\/p>\n<\/li>\n

      6. \n
        \n

        Step 6.<\/h3>\n

        Click the link in your emails<\/h3>\n<\/div>\n

        \"\"<\/p>\n

        You should receive an email from OpenAI with instructions on how to reset your password. Click the green Reset password button in this email.\u00a0<\/p>\n

        If you haven\u2019t received an email instantly, be sure to wait for a few minutes or check your spam. Try the steps again if you still don\u2019t receive an email.\u00a0<\/p>\n<\/li>\n

      7. \n
        \n

        Step 7.<\/h3>\n

        Reset your password<\/h3>\n<\/div>\n

        \"\"<\/p>\n

        Choose a strong password of at least 12 characters. Once you\u2019ve securely made a note of your new password, select Reset password.<\/p>\n<\/li>\n

      8. \n
        \n

        Step 8.<\/h3>\n

        Return to OpenAI ChatGPT Web<\/h3>\n<\/div>\n

        \"\"<\/p>\n

        Once your password is successfully changed, select the green Back to OpenAI ChatGPT Web button. You may be prompted to log in again with your new password.<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<\/div>\n

        Troubleshooting<\/h2>\n
        \n
        What if I no longer have access to the email account I used to register my account?<\/strong> <\/p>\n

        OpenAI\/ChatGPT does not currently allow users to update their email address so you will need to make a new account. You can contact OpenAI via their Privacy Request Portal to delete your old account and cancel any subscriptions you may have.\u00a0<\/p>\n

        It\u2019s worth noting that you will not be able to transfer your ChatGPT history or workplaces to a new account.<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n

        What should I do if I didn\u2019t receive an email\/the reset process didn\u2019t work?<\/strong> <\/p>\n

        You should check to see if you initially authenticated your account using your Google or Microsoft log-ins. If you did, then try logging back in with that authentication method instead.<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/div>\n
