Frequently Asked Questions

How to fix the "Password reset request has expired" error?

Issue: If you have attempted to reset the password several times and received "Password reset request has expired" error when clicking the link in an email, the reason can be the following:

  1. You requested a password reset (email #1).
  2. Your email system had issues or was slow at the time the reset link was requested to be sent, as a result the email delivery was delayed.
  3. You requested a reset again (can only be done after 15 minutes), and the email #2 with reset link was sent.
  4. The email #1 was delivered to you but the link in it is expired (because there was a new reset request).
  5. The email #2 was delayed and you requested the password reset again (email #3) ....

Solution: Before attempting to reset the password again, wait 20-30 min, check your mailbox (spam, trash folders), refresh mailbox several times and try to re-login to your mailbox. It can be that the email with the working link isn't yet delivered and you are clicking on an old link which becomes expired when you request another reset.

Only the latest email contains valid reset link - Check the last email, click the three dots icon to show the trimmed message which contains the current valid password reset link.
