How do I reset a password without losing my account?

Password resets are normal, but the safest way is to start from the official app or website yourself, not from a link in a message you did not expect.

The short answer

Go directly to the official website or app, choose Forgot password, use your recovery email or phone, then save the new password in your password manager.

Try these first

1Type the website address yourself or use the official app.
2Confirm your recovery email and phone are yours.
3Save the new password somewhere trusted before closing the page.
