I'm able to login, however, I was invited to a new shared folder which requires stronger password requirements. When attempting to reset my password, the site informs me my "old" password is incorrect. I don't see any link to reset my old password, which I need to do before creating a new, stronger, password. Any assistance would be greatly appreciated.

Hi Austin, 

Welcome to Box Community and glad to assist! 

Kindly change your password by following the steps below. 

  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 works!
