Change password

Each FACTON user owns an individual password. A user needs this password to log into FACTON.

A password may consist of any combination of letters, numbers, spaces and symbols. Passwords are case sensitive. So, when you are using capital letters when setting a password, you need to use these when you are requested to enter your password.

Change password

  1. In the ribbon, click on File > Settings > Change Password. The "Change Password" dialog opens.
  2. Enter your current password in the Old password entry field.
  3. Enter your new password in the New password entry field.
  4. Enter the password in the Confirm password entry field again to confirm your new password.
  5. Confirm your entries with OK.
