Forcing yourself to enter your email address and password each time you need to check your Gmail, ensures you never forget it. Having your web browser store your password can cause problems especially if you forgot to log out of your Google account, if others use that same computer and more. Often we here of Google users who allowed their web browser to save their password – sure it’s nice to not have to type any more than you have to, but what happens if you experience a hard drive crash? You clear your browser’s cache or passwords? You do something to force Google to ask you for your password? A password you might have chosen 3 years ago and never had to type it in since. If you think it can’t happen to you, think again. So do yourself a favor and when it comes to your Google account password, never elect have any web browser store that information.

Depending on whether or not you have provided Google with a mobile phone number as part of your Google account recovery options, will determine how difficult it will be change your Google account password or what many of you refer to as your “Gmail Password“. If you have provided Google your mobile phone number, then Google will ask you to enter your mobile phone number then send you a 6 digit code via a text message. You then provide Google with that 6 digit code. By doing so, you’re authenticating to Google that it’s really you.

If you have not provided Google with your mobile phone number, then you will be asked  a series of questions in an attempt to verify that you are actually the true user of your Google account. Those questions include such things as providing the date your established your Google (Gmail) Account, last 5 people you’re sent emails to and many more. Google will then perform due diligence to verify that it’s really you and respond to you at an alternate email address providing you’ve already given them one. Providing the wrong answers when using Google Password Recovery Tool will almost always result in you not regaining access to your Google account.

Others (God forbid) are still using email clients such as Microsoft Outlook or Apple Mail. Their email clients may still remember their password but are unable to login from other devices. The number of possibilities are long.
