How to Change or Reset Fewcha Wallet Password

Changing the current password or resetting the forgotten password is always possible in all non-custodial Web 3 wallets. Before changing or resetting the Fewcha Wallet, make sure that you have taken a backup of your secret recovery phrase or the private key.

In this article, I have detailed the process of how I changed and reset my Fewcha Wallet password in under 1 minute.

There are two scenarios discussed:

Steps to Reset Fewcha Wallet Password

Since Fewcha Wallet does not have a feature to reset password like Martian or Petra Wallets yet, you need to manually uninstall the extension to reset the password.

  1. Uninstall and Reinstall the Fewcha Extension
  2. Click “Use an existing wallet
  3. Click “With Recovery Phrase” or “With Private Key”
  4. Set a New Password
  5. Enter the Recovery Phrase or Private Key

1. Uninstall and Reinstall the Fewcha Extension

To uninstall the Fewcha Wallet extension, click the “Puzzle icon” in the Chrome browser.

Then, click “Remove from Chrome”.

Uninstall Fewcha Wallet

Now, you need to install the Fewcha Wallet extension again. To do so, head to the Fewcha Wallet website and click “Get Extension”.

2. Click “Use an existing wallet

After installing the extension, you will be able to see two options: “Create a new wallet” and “Use an existing wallet”.

Since you are resetting the password, you must choose “Use an existing wallet”.

3. Click “With Recovery Phrase” or “With Private Key”

Fewcha Wallet allows you to restore the account either via the secret recovery phrase or via the private key.

Choose whatever you are comfortable with. I will be going with the “Secret recovery phrase” option.

4. Set a New Password

Now is the time you are looking for. You will be allowed to set the new password after choosing the recovery option.

Set a strong as well as easy-to-remember password. You don’t need to enter your current password to reset the password. All you need is your private key or secret recovery phrase associated with your Fewcha Wallet account.

After setting the new password, read the Terms of Service and Privacy Policy. Select the checkbox and click “Continue”.

5. Enter the Recovery Phrase or Private Key

To complete this process, you need to enter the recovery phrase or private key.

If you have chosen the private key in Step 3, enter your private key; otherwise, enter your secret recovery phrase in the right order.

Lastly, click “Continue”.

That’s it. You have successfully reset the forgotten password.

Conclusion

Changing the current password is smooth and easy. It can be done by heading to the “Settings” option.

On the other hand, you must enter your recovery phrase or private key if you forget your password in order to set a new one. You or the Fewcha Wallet team cannot change your password without the private key or secret recovery phrase.

Ensure you have taken a backup of your recovery phrase. If not, you can do so by going to “Settings” and clicking “Wallet account name”.

Always follow the best practices to store the Fewcha Wallet recovery phrase or private key.
