Password is not a thing to worry about for your etherwallet as long as you already created the account and your private key is safe, you need not panic. Your private key is all you need when you want to access your wallet. Try not to forget your private key as it might be a thing to worry about when mishandled.

Actually forgot password is not a problem if we still have its private key because to enter myetherwallet can use private key.Myetherwallet the most important is the private key, if forgot its only json and password, make it a habit to create an account always recorded everything including backups layered in 1- 2 drives.

I think it is completely okay if you forgot your password because whenever I logged in to my MEW account I just use my private keys instead of my password. Just don’t lose them because that’s your last hope of logging in to your account. I have a friend who deleted a single letter on her private keys and she never got her account back and just created a new one instead.

Hello everybody,

Sadly, I have forgotten my password of myetherwallet.
But I still have my public and my private key.
With these elements, is it possible to modify my password?

Thanks.

Kind regards.
for the password mytherwallet you can easily change it, but if the private  key is lost it can harm you because the private key  is the source of your mytherwallet address

As long as you have the private key, you are ok as you can still access your account.
Just use the private key in logging in, password is just one way of opening your account.
Therefore if you forgot it and you have a private key, you can still use the private key in accessing your account.

Just be careful on storing your private key, as this is also cannot be changed. careful is the act when it comes to delicate issues like this

I think you only need to keep the private key safe because it is enough to access your wallet. You do not need the password because its purpose was only to create a new wallet which you have been using now.

It is not possible to recover or reset your MyEtherWallet password in any way.
Knowing that now, what else do you wanna ask? If you want to know if it's still possible to access your wallet with just private keys, then the answer is yes. Afaik, MEW does not require a password to access your wallet using the Private Key, you just have to be sure that you're in the right site/correct URL before unlocking it.
Password is required only ro access that account on that desktop but if we have the private key we xan open the same wallet in the another system.All we need to do is go to the official MEW and go to the wallet create option with the private key.

Maybe you are pertaining into the password being created on the first time when you create a new mew wallet address?Am I right? Those are just password to encrypt json.file. if you do possess your private keys then you can anytime logged in to your myetherwallet without any problems since the common thing you would need to access is the key.This is why this information is very sensible.

You have many options to access your private key. One of them is with the private key and you have it, so you are good.
The private key is very important and you need to have it. Don't lose it.

You dont need your password when logging into myetherwallet,  private key is enough for you to open your account,  always put your private key in a secure place ,dont give it to someone or you will lose your coins.

When it comes to Json file you do need the password, as you use password to encrypt the Json file. So if you forget your password you will never get your wallet unlocked by Json file. Private  key can be the only way to access your address. However private key is the most dangerous way for me and I never use my private key. Better to store it in a safe way and use encrypted Json.

It's okay if you forgotten the password of your myetherwallet account.
Wallets there aren't composed of login username and password.
Public key will not help you to modify your password as your private key will serve as your password.
And that's the most needed words that you need to recover your account.

Just to keep safe and not to lose your money or token in the future you might consider making a new one and transfer what you have and keep your password in safe place.

No, when you forget your password then forget it now, but you can still open your MEW with the private key, that's why it has many option to open it, but if you want you can create a new wallet then transfer all your tokens to your new wallet to be safe, and don't forget to save your password on your gmail.

Don`t worried  about your password in creating your wallet, its because password in myetherwallet is only for the creation of your wallet but  if you want to open and use your wallet the only one thing that you need is your private key, so be careful about your private key because is your link to open your account.

no , you cannot modify your password using those methods. pasword is only used before you create your mew account and after that , you will need to choose a few methods in order to unlock your account. in your case you have chosen a private key. therfor you need to use your private key everytime you open your mew account and theres no need to use a password anymore. you should kept your private keys in a safe place such as in note pad or memos in order to have a copy of it.

What? in myetherewallet is not important things your password right the only things you need to secure is your private key that you need to open your wallet, so the function of your password is to make your wallet and a side that is nothing, its based on what I know.

I think Myetherwallet no need password bro,, password only use at first create new wallet, and for open you wallet you can unlock by json file, private keys, and other. But private keys is not recommend because its high risk from phising and hacked, for security only use metamask

You don't need password for MEW, you need it to create new wallet.
Private key is only thing what matters, if you have it you are fine.
Public key is public and available to everyone and private key is important to you  Cheesy

Do you have JSON file while you created the wallet. That is enough to access your wallet bro. If you do not have the JSON file. Please confirm that what is sign up you have used while you access it first.
View w/ Address Only
Mnemonic Phrase
MetaMask / Mist
Hardware wallet(Ledger and Trezor)

These are useful to access your wallet. Please check the above option and confirm again. If you still unable to access it.

Use the below link.
