# How to reset a backup account password

Backup account passwords are managed independently from the website client area password

* Each backup account can have it's own password.&#x20;

If you forget or lose the backup account password, you can reset it within the [client area](https://accounts.eazybackup.ca).

* From the eazyBackup menu select 'Dashboard'
* Select the 'Users' tab from the Dashboard page
* Select the account Username that requires the password reset
* From the Profile tab, click the "Actions" button and select 'Reset Password'

Type and confirm your new password, optionally use the **Generate Password** option. Create a strong random password for your account.&#x20;

When you are finished click **Reset Password.**
