## Verified facts

Checked against Adobe's own documentation on 2026-08-19. Fields absent below are ones Adobe does not document, not ones we assumed.

| Field | Value |
|---|---|
| Reset starts at | https://account.adobe.com |
| Reset by email | yes |
| The email contains | a code |

## Steps

1. **Open Adobe's password reset page** at https://account.adobe.com. This is where the "Forgot password?" link on the sign-in screen leads.
2. **Enter the email address on the account.** If you are not sure which address that is, search your inboxes for mail from adobe.com; the inbox holding those messages is the account email.
3. **Enter the verification code** Adobe emails you.
4. **Choose a strong new password.** 16+ random characters, and never one used anywhere else.
5. **Store it somewhere sealed**: a password manager or encrypted vault, not a note and not a screenshot.

## Common problems

- **Loss of authentication methods with two-step verification.** If you have enabled two-step verification and forgotten your password, you must have access to at least two authentication methods (such as your linked email address, linked mobile phone number, or the Adobe Account Access app) to retrieve your account. If you do not have access, Adobe recommends creating a new account. (https://helpx.adobe.com/account/individual/sign-in-and-security/security-and-recovery/cant-sign-in-to-adobe-account.html)

## Doing it automatically

Repass connects to Gmail once, finds the accounts you have, and runs this flow for you in your own browser. Passwords are generated on your device and encrypted before they are stored; Repass also holds a key that can unwrap the vault, so signing in is enough to open it. It pauses and hands over when a site asks for a CAPTCHA or a code.
