Recover a lost password

If a user has forgotten his password, it can be recovered if the administrator has:

  • Assigned an SMTP server (see Support).
  • Entered an email address for that user (see Users)

If the above conditions have been met, the administrator and/or user can follow the steps below to recover a password:

  1. On the login page, choose Have you lost or forgotten your password?
  2. Enter the login and type the Word verification (this ensures that the request is coming from a person).
  3. Choose Send.
  4. An email is sent to the user. Open it and choose Click here.
  5. In the Reinitialize your password screen, type your login and new password and choose Send.
