# Changing your password

Change your Open Core HR sign-in password from the account menu or your profile.

You can change your sign-in password from your profile page at any time.

## Steps

1. Open **Change Password** from the account menu at the bottom of the sidebar. (You can also open **My Profile** and click **Change Password** in the **Security** card.)
2. In the **Change Password** window, enter your **Current Password**.
3. Enter your **New Password**.
4. Enter the same new password again in **Confirm New Password**.
5. Click **Change Password**.

Use the new password the next time you sign in.

## Tips

- Your new password must be at least 6 characters long.
- If you have a Microsoft 365 account through Open Core HR, your new password is applied there too.

## Troubleshooting

- **"Current password is incorrect"** — re-enter your existing password and try again.
- **The new password and confirmation don't match** — make sure both boxes contain exactly the same password.
