It’s always unfortunate when we forget our passwords, but luckily Discord, like many other platforms, gives us the ability to reset them through various devices.
Here’s a step-by-step guide on how to reset your Discord password:

Reasons to Change a Discord Password
It’s important to change your passwords on all your social media accounts once in a while. Here are some reasons to change your Discord password:
- Your account has been hacked – if you receive signs that your account has been compromised (such as an email about someone logging into your discord account from a location you’re unfamiliar with, etc), it’s time to change your password immediately.
- Your password has been compromised – if any other accounts you’re using on different platforms have been hacked into, you should immediately reset your password (on that note, don’t use the same password for everything!).
- You’ve forgotten your Discord password
That’s it! We hope this guide will help you out in case you wish to reset your Discord password.
