Reset Your cPanel Account Password from WHM in 5 Easy Steps

You have the ability to establish and oversee numerous cPanel accounts if you are the owner of a VPS or dedicated server account. These server-side cPanel accounts could belong to you or one of your clients. You may need to reset a cPanel password that you or your clients have forgotten. As seen below, you can simply accomplish this within the WHM.

In this article, you will learn to reset a cPanel password in WHM.

Steps to Reset a cPanel Password

1. Log in to your WHM account.

2. In the left-hand menu, click on the Account Functions option.

3. Next, click on the Password Modification tool. You will see this option in the left-hand menu or the main panel.

4. Select the account for which you want to change the password by highlight in the list.

5. In the Password field, enter the new password. Alternate option is to let the WHM generate a random password with the Password Generator button.

Note: Make sure you note the password as you won’t see it after leaving this page.

6. Save the new password by clicking on Change Password button.

With the new password, the cPanel user can now access the cPanel. WHM won’t send you an automated message with the new password. In the event that the new password belongs to someone other than you, you will need to inform the cPanel management of this.
