Even if you have a strong password protecting your Yahoo account, you may occasionally need to change it.

In addition to regular password maintenance, you should know how to change your password in case you learn the account has been hacked, there has been a data breach, or it has been otherwise compromised.

Luckily, it just takes a few clicks to change your Yahoo password. Here's how.

If you know your existing Yahoo password and need to change it, you can use the link found in your account settings.

1. Open Yahoo in a web browser and then click your account avatar at the top right of the web page.

2. In the drop-down menu, click "Settings." If you are directed to the Yahoo Mail page, choose "Account info" instead.

3. In the pane on the left, click "Account Security."

4. Click "Change password."

5. Enter the new password you want to use and enter it a second time in the "Confirm new password" field. Check "Show password" if you find it easier to see what you're typing.

6. Click "Continue" to save your new password.

You can also change your Yahoo password from the mobile app.

1. In the Yahoo app on your phone or tablet, tap your account avatar at the top left of the screen, above the Inbox.

2. Tap "Settings."

3. In the Settings menu, tap "Manage accounts."

4. On the Manage Accounts page, find your account and then tap "Account info."

5. Tap "Security Settings." You may need to enter the password or use your device's biometric security.

6. On the Account Security page, tap "Change password."

7. Finally, enter your new password and confirm it by entering it a second time.

8. Tap "Continue." Your new password is saved.

If you've lost or forgotten your Yahoo password, you can reset it to regain access to your account.

1. Open Yahoo in a web browser and click "Sign in."

2. Enter your username or email address and click "Next."

3. Click "Forgot password?"

4. Yahoo will offer to send you a password reset link. Your options depend upon what contact options you've configured in your Yahoo account settings. Typically, you can choose to get a text message or an email sent to a backup email address. Choose the option that works best for you.

5. When you get the reset link, follow it and then enter the new password you want to use with your Yahoo account.

Remember to make your new password a strong one – a combination of upper- and lowercase letter, numbers, and symbols – that's no fewer than eight characters long. And don't reuse the password from any other online service.

If you don’t use a password manager, those complex passwords can be pretty hard to remember. If you’ve forgotten your Yahoo password, you can’t really recover that same password, but it’s easy enough to recover your account by resetting your password to something new.

Head on over to yahoo.com, and then click the “Sign In” button located at the top of the page.

Next, click the “Trouble Signing In” link.

Enter either the Yahoo email address or the phone number you used to sign up with, and then click the “Continue” button. If you use an email address, you’ll get a message with a link you can click to create a new password. If you use a phone number, there are a couple of extra steps before you get to that part, and we’ll take a closer look at those here.

Click the “Yes, Text Me An Account Key” button.

If you no longer have access to that phone number, and you have already set up another recovery email/phone number, then click the “I Don’t Have Access To This Phone” button. Yahoo will send the key to your other recovery option.

After you receive the text/email, enter the code into the field provided, and then click the “Verify” button.

This actually signs you in, and you can just continue to go on to the site. But, it’s beset to go ahead and click the “Create a New Password” button and get that out of the way.

You may need to enter a reCAPTCHA to prove you’re human. Once you do, click the “Continue” button.

The next screen requires you to create a new password for your account (be sure to use a strong password). After typing and confirming your new password, click the “Continue” button.

Creating a new password automatically signs you out of all other devices you have linked to this account for security reasons. So, you’ll have to sign in again on those other devices using your new password.

Finally, if you don’t have any additional recovery accounts linked to your account, you’ll be prompted to add a secondary email or phone number. This is just in case you lose access to your primary email or phone number, and need to recover your password again in the future. After you’ve added the information, click the “Looks Good” button.

That’s it! You’ve successfully recovered and changed your Yahoo! password. Click “Ok, Got It” to return to your Yahoo! homepage.
