## Verified facts

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

| Field | Value |
|---|---|
| Reset starts at | https://accounts.nordaccount.com/login |
| Reset by email | yes |
| The email contains | a link |

## Steps

1. **Open NordPass's password reset page** at https://accounts.nordaccount.com/login. 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 nordpass.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

- **Master password reset deletes all vault items.** Resetting a forgotten master password requires account reset without a recovery code, which deletes all stored items in the vault: the encryption is built so that nothing but your master password can unlock it.

- **Reset email valid for 48 hours only.** The vault reset confirmation email sent during account recovery is valid for only 48 hours before the link expires. (https://support.nordpass.com/hc/en-us/articles/5388857973905-How-to-reset-NordPass-account)
- **Recovery code required for master password reset.** The master password cannot be reset by regular means and requires a 24-symbol recovery code provided during initial account setup. (https://support.nordpass.com/hc/en-us/articles/4415415996817-NordPass-Master-Password-and-Account-Password)

## 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.
