RE: Lost My Password/Keys on My Main Account! Verified with Pictures of Me, Active Contributor! 25 STEEM Reward if Anyone Can Help Me Recover My Login

I dont think they make it easy unfortnately.

On the password page...

The first rule of Steemit is: Do not lose your password.
The second rule of Steemit is: Do not lose your password.
The third rule of Steemit is: We cannot recover your password.
The fourth rule: If you can remember the password, it's not secure.
The fifth rule: Use only randomly-generated passwords.
The sixth rule: Do not tell anyone your password.
The seventh rule: Always back up your password.

They want you to make a password you can't remember but won't recover it if you forget or miss place it.

Sort:

It's a feature, not a bug. :-)
You really don't want to make it easy for someone who don't have a password for account to access that account. You own an account if you have an Owner Key for account. If you don't then you don't.

Good Luck though! Hopefully you have stored it somewhere.
