How to change your cPanel password

Log in to cPanel and open Password & Security. Enter your current password, then create a new strong password using uppercase letters, lowercase letters, numbers and symbols. Avoid passwords used on other websites. After saving, update any stored FTP or integration details that use the same cPanel login. If you gave access to a developer, change the password after the work is complete or create limited FTP access instead. If you cannot log in, reset access through the XL Hosts NL client area or open a support ticket for help.
