Bitwarden I Forgot my Master Password

Bitwarden uses zero-knowledge encryption to function. This means that Bitwarden has no idea what your master password is, how to get it back, or how to reset it. However, there are a few actions you may try to perform in order to restore access to your vault:

1. Try signing in with a different device.
2. Get a master password hint. An email with a clue will be sent to your mailbox if you have one established. You will receive an email informing you of this if you don't have a hint configured.
3. In order to restore read or takeover access to your vault if emergency access is enabled, get in touch with your reliable emergency contact.
4. Contact your administrator to reset your master password if your organization employs admin password reset.

You must delete your account and create a new one if none of the following solutions work to give you access to your vault:

1. Navigate to vault.bitwarden.com/#/recover-delete.
2. Select Submit after entering the email address connected to your account.
3. Open the email from Bitwarden in your inbox and confirm that you want to delete the account.
