I am not able to reset my password because I do not remember my current password. I need a stronger password in order to accept files from my employer Box folder.

Hi ​@kmb912

Welcome to Box Community, and we’ll assist regarding your password reset! 

 

To setup a new password to your Box account, here are the steps to reset your password: 

  1. Visit https://app.box.com/reset and enter the email address associated with your Box account.
  2. Check your email, you will receive an email with a link to reset your password.
  • Password reset links sent via email expire 3 hours after they are sent. If you need a new link after your current one has expired, visit https://app.box.com/reset to have another link emailed to you.
  • If you do not receive an email from Box for this password reset, check to see if your Box account is associated with that specific email address or another email address.
  • Also, check your spam folder in your email client for this email.

Hope it helps! Let us know if you have questions.
