Here is a weird thing, I simply can't change my account's password.

  • Go to your profile
  • Select Edit Profile & Settings tab
  • In the left side sub menu select My Logins
  • In the page select change password option
  • Then enter the new password to update your password.

At the profile page, "My Logins" section, when I click on "change password", it redirects me to the main site.

No error, no warning.

I can use "I forgot my password" to reset it but what's the problem here? Why is it not working?

I tried to change the password from different sites on the network but found the same result on all of them.

    Looks like the option to change password from within that page is broken for a long time, it used to give error when trying, now it just do nothing which is even worse. – Shadow Wizard is Vaccinating Jun 27 '20 at 8:14

Go to this site: https://openid.stackexchange.com/, and login to the account you want to change the password on. At the top, you will see a "Change Password" button. Click and change.

UPDATE:

From the post Support for OpenID ended on July 25, 2018:

Currently, https://openid.stackexchange.com/ is still on the internet, but we are in the process of completely removing it.

In light of this, I'm adding another way:

Just log out, and use the "Forgot Password" option shown here:

They will send you a recovery link. This is the best way I know of if the My Logins way isn't working.
