How Do I Change My cPanel Password?

This will not change your GreenGeeks password. To change your GreenGeeks password, see these instructions.

Changing Your cPanel Password

Log in to GreenGeeks. If you have lost or forgotten your GreenGeeks password you can reset it using the “Forgot Password?” link under the GreenGeeks login box.

From the GreenGeeks Dashboard, click “Hosting” on the left.

If you only have one hosting account, it’ll be the only one available.

Click the “Change Password” link.

Change Password

Enter your password in the text box. Underneath the textbox, you will see a colored bar, which indicates the password strength. It is highly recommended to make sure it is a strong password (green).

Click on the “Change Password” button to finish.
