Have been unable to login to Install Manager for a couple of days now. Password (Which has remained unchanged for years) is not being recognised. Help!

    I read in another thread that some passwords are needing to be updated to new ones due to security improvements. Try that.

    How can I update my password if I can't login to Install Manager? Can it be done here?

    Yes, your Account Page has a Change Password link.

    Thing is, my password still (obviously) works here, just not for Install Manager. But, I'll give it a try.

    Yup, that seemed to work.  Although given some of what I've read on the forums, I'm not sure I want use the new version of Install Manager! Thanks for the help.:)

    ..ugh being a dyslexic with short term memory issues, I loathe having to create new passwords 

    For now I'll just install in offline mode. Yeah more tedious but given other issues I've been having after each DIM update since last year (the .ini file goes to teh wrong location the manifest.json file ends upon the desktop. and all download/install settings revert to the base defaults of C:/Documents) I'll just have to deal with it.

    Sort of like the old days with the Bitrock installers again save for that I can at least batch install everything after I get the .zips moved to the IM install folder

    I've gone to a password manager/generator (KeePassXC in my case); the primary reason is to get all my userids and passwords in one place so my next of kin has a way to shut down my accounts cleanly. But it helps with this kind of nonsense.
