Password Recovery Methods

To recover your account, you must either provide the email using which you have registered or provide other essential information that you filled in while making your account. 

Account Recovery via Email

While recovering your account via email you need to fill out the username and email that you provided while creating your account. Then click on ‘Find Account’ to locate your account. 

Upon locating your account, the system will send the verification code to the email. Enter the verification code and then type a new password adhering to the standard password criteria on Zenople and confirm it once again and submit.

  Note: Users need to use the verification code within 5 minutes of sending the code. If the users fail to use this code, they need to resend the code to recover their account. 

This process will change the password and now the user will be able to access your account with your username and a new password.
