How do I reset my cPanel password?
The cPanel password is used for a number of things, including cPanel, FTP/SFTP, and SSH access.
Like logging into cPanel, there are two methods we provide you to reset your cPanel password.
Reset the Password from the Clickhost dashboard
- Log into your Clickhost dashboard at https://clickhost.com.au/manage/dashboard
- Select the type of service on the left-hand side
- Click Manage instead of the cPanel Logo
- Click the Access Credentials tile on the right-hand side.
- Reset it using the Reset Password option.
This will generate a random secure password on the screen for you. If you'd like your own password set you would need to reset this via cPanel like below.

It's recommended to use the password generator so that you have a strong password set.
