Changing Master Passwords

Users can change their master password at any time, provided they remember their current master password. If they do not remember it, they will need to reset the password, resulting in losing all stored passwords.

   • Password: Enter your new master password.

   • Confirm Password: Re-enter your new master password to confirm.

5. Save the New Password
