Re: [Solved] How to change profile password?

You email forum@archlinux.org with details of the account: username, email address at a minimum.

You don't create a new account just to do that: see our policy on multiple accounts.

Once I have your email, I'll delete this thread and the account.

The Beginner's Guide has details on setting, or resetting, the user password. If you need to change the root password, you can read this page:
