I signed up via Google and when I try to change my password to access a file that requires a strong password, I repeatedly get an error message because I currently have no password.

Hi Regina, 


Welcome to Box Community and glad to assist! 


To setup a password for your Box account, please follow 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.

Thanks for posting!
