How do I change my account password in Cpanel?

You can change the password for your cPanel account from cPanel's Password & Security interface. The exact menu layout can vary by cPanel version and hosting provider.

  1. Sign in to the correct cPanel account.
  2. Open Password & Security (it may appear under Preferences).
  3. Enter your current password, then enter and confirm a new, unique password. Use the password-strength guidance shown on the page.
  4. Save the change and sign in again with the new cPanel password if prompted.

This changes the cPanel password, not necessarily your Buywebhosting client-area password, email password, or passwords for other services. Update saved credentials only where needed.

If you cannot sign in or no longer know the current password, use the password-reset option in the client area or contact support through the client area. Never send your password in a support ticket or email. Use a password manager and do not reuse a password from another site.
