Manage Your Master Password Reminder
When you created your account and set up your master password, you were given the option of creating a password hint. If you want to create a new password hint/reminder, you will need to change your master password to set a new hint or update an existing hint.
View your master password reminder
- Log in to LastPass and access your vault by doing either of the following:
- In your web browser toolbar, click the LastPass icon
and select Vault or Open My Vault.
- Go to https://lastpass.com/?ac=1 and log in with your email address and master password.
- In your web browser toolbar, click the LastPass icon
- Select Account Settings in the left navigation.
- On the General tab under Login Credentials, click View next to the Master Password Reminder option.
- If you set up a master password reminder, it is displayed within the prompt. If you do not encounter a prompt, it means you have not set up a master password reminder.
Change your master password reminder
- Log out of LastPass on every computer and/or mobile device where you have installed and accessed your LastPass vault. You can check your active sessions for all devices.
- Log back in with your new master password.
Changing or resetting your master password will invalidate all one-time passwords that you generated before the change occurred (as it requires your vault to be re-encrypted). This means that you will need to generate new OTPs after a master password change, as all OTPs you generated previously will no longer be listed.
