# How to Reset or Change Your Password

### Summary

Reset your forgotten vLex Library password from the login page, or change your current password from your account settings. Both methods use a secure email link to protect your account.

### Why This is Important

Maintaining a secure password protects your account, your confidential research history, and your organization's data. Knowing how to reset it ensures you can quickly regain access if you are ever locked out.

2. Click the [**Forgotten your password?**](https://app.vlex.com/account/password_reset) link.
3. Enter the email address associated with your account and submit.
4. You will receive an email with a [**Reset password** link](https://app.vlex.com/account/password_reset). Click it and follow the prompts to create a new password.
