Part 15 - Problems with Passwords: Special Note

- Problems with Passwords

• From the FAQ:[1]

• I forgot my password, but never registered an e-mail account. Can I still reset my password?* Unfortunately, no. There is currently no way to reset your password unless you have an e-mail address registered. Nobody else can assist you either, the admins will not reset your password for you. If you have forgotten it and you haven't registered an email address, there is nothing you can do. If you're still able to log in to Reddit via saved login details on an existing device, that means the device's browser "remembers" your password. Try looking in your browser's settings to extract the saved password.

• From the Automod response on r/help:[2]

Your question seems to be about having problems logging in with your password. If you have simply forgotten your password, you can find that information here in our FAQ[3]. If you think your account has been hijacked, please refer to this thread: Is your Reddit password invalid? Your account might have been hijacked[4]. If you are being told that the password on a brand-new account is invalid, you need to contact the Reddit admins. For all other questions regarding passwords and logging in, contact the Reddit admins by emailing contact@reddit.com, via this support request form[5] or using this old modmail link[6].
