Recover a forgotten password
Reset your password with an emailed link and see what recovery does to your sessions.
Available
Steps
Start the lab, then request a password reset for your account's email address.
What the server checks: A password reset request for your account after you started.
The link goes only to the verified mailbox. Asking for a reset changes nothing until the link is used.
Open the link from the email and choose a new password.
What the server checks: A completed password reset for your account.
Completing the reset replaces the password and ends every session for the account in the same step, including the one in this browser.
Sign in with your new password, then come back to this page.
What the server checks: A successful password sign-in after the reset.
Recovery ends with an ordinary sign-in, so the new password is proved like any other.
Do it
The server checks your own account records and sign-in history, and shows only whether each step is done. It never shows the events themselves.
