RE: ❓ Answering Common Questions: An Easy to Use New User Resource Library ❗

in #steem-help • 7 years ago

Thank you for a great resource for us newbies!
Can you please direct me to how to sign in when your password nor your long key will work. I have started entering content but am fearful to add more when I can't sign in from my phone and what if I get signed out by my laptop.
I can't find anywhere for assistance and keep reading if you loose your password you are doomed. There has to be a way to recover your account??

    Hrm.. To some degree it depends which password or key you're logged in with. If your browser has your master password saved these might work. But if you have the say, the active key in there, these wouldn't necessarily be a fix.

    But a couple things you can try...

    If using another browser, just Google how to get a saved password out of (insert browser name here).

    • Again assuming you're logged in with your master password, you can go into (on steemit) wallet -> password and then generate a new one. You'll be prompted to put in your master password or owner key which hopefully is auto filled by your browser.

    If that works you'll be given the new, generated password.

    But again, this all depends on the browser having the right master/owner key.
