Password Reset
« on: 13 October 2020, 14:11:41 »

I seem to have cocked something up. I am trying to setup a new PC, but I can't get it to log onto OOF. I enter what I think is the correct username and password, but it then re-directs me to an authentication reminder screen, and won't let me in. I can't authenticate because my registered EMAIL address is no longer accessible, so I can't access the reset password EMAIL. And you can't reset your online email address or passwords unless you know your current password, which apparently I don't.

I can still access OOF on this PC which is permenetly logged in - presumably untill someone eats my cookie.

Belay the last pipe. Found the cookie on the new machine, deleted it, and then got 3 more guesses at my password, and it's let me in.

Now save the admins hassle in the future and change your email address, assuming it doesn't send a link to your old email address to confirm.

No it doesn't.   :y

I was recently getting a pop up every time I logged in telling me that my password had been compromised and I had to change it, and when I went to change the password realised that the email address was long dead.  ::)

I changed the email address without any hassle.  :y
