# Change master password

{% hint style="warning" %}
In order to change your password, you will need to remember the current password. 

You can't change the password if you forgot it. Check out [this article](/main/extension-user-guide/account-security/manage-master-password/forgot-master-password.md) if you forgot your password.

**Step 1**: Open the SubWallet extension and click on the <img src="/files/Fa0WkuZAMjnP5zVvAdmq" alt="" data-size="line"> icon at the top left corner to get to the Settings section.

Make sure your master password is **well-kept**.

SubWallet is non-custodial, so you are the only person who knows your password; we can't help you restore it once it is lost.
