You can not change your password, but it would make sense if you open a new wallet and transfer all your investments.

Any way to change password on MyEtherWallet?
Your password can't be changed, the possible thing about you can try to make another new one and try to use the new password in your new wallet. You can't do anything with it if you've entered your password.

You cannot, once you entered a password, a private key will be created. And you cannot change your password nor the private key of your MyEtherWallet address. What you can only do is to create a new account and transfer your ETH and tokens into the new address you created.

You cant. The password helps the website generate a private key for you. If you don't trust your account, create a new address and key and move your funds.

This is the only way to do it. If you feel the need to change your password because your ethereum wallet may be compromised, then you really should create a new wallet as soon as possible. If your problem is that you forgot your ethereum wallet password, then you may need to find your unencrypted private key to access your wallet again.

Replies many times, but, simply, you can't change your MEW password.

If you have security concerns, get a new wallet, this will be the best thing for you. The clear wallet is equal to more security.

Myetherwallet is an open source online wallet for ethereum and tokens. You can create a wallet by entering a password but it was not the one that you are going to use to access your wallet. You can use your private key, which will be given after you created a wallet, or the other options. Changing password to myetherwallet is impossible because if you are using a private key to access your account, you need to save or keep your private key. If you didn't keep your private key, you need to create a new wallet and keep your private key.

You cannot  Smiley this is not a forum account. This is wallet, you can only open another wallet with your new desired password.
