## Verified facts

Checked against EVE Online's own documentation on 2026-08-20. Fields absent below are ones EVE Online does not document, not ones we assumed.

| Field | Value |
|---|---|
| Reset starts at | https://secure.eveonline.com/resetpassword/ |
| Reset by email | yes |
| The email contains | a link |
| Username accepted | yes |

## Steps

1. **Open EVE Online's password reset page** at https://secure.eveonline.com/resetpassword/. This is where the "Forgot password?" link on the sign-in screen leads.
2. **Enter the email address on the account.** EVE Online also accepts the username. If you are not sure which address that is, search your inboxes for mail from eveonline.com; the inbox holding those messages is the account email.
3. **Open the reset email and follow its link.** Links are single-use and short-lived; if nothing arrives in a few minutes, check spam and confirm the address.
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

- **Recovery email delivery delay.** Recovery email may take up to 30 minutes to arrive after submitting the reset form. (https://support.eveonline.com/hc/en-us/articles/204217361-Account-Recovery)
- **Recovery email only sent to valid addresses.** The recovery email will only be sent to an email address which actually exists in the system. (https://support.eveonline.com/hc/en-us/articles/204217361-Account-Recovery)
- **Verify email and check spam folders.** If recovery email is not received, check spam and promotion folders and ensure the entered information was correct. (https://support.eveonline.com/hc/en-us/articles/204217361-Account-Recovery)

## 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.
