You cannot see your current Roblox password, but you can reset it in minutes
Roblox does not show you your password anywhere — not in settings, not in email, nowhere. This is actually a security feature: if Roblox staff cannot see your password, neither can a hacker who breaks into Roblox's systems. But if you have forgotten it, you can reset it through your email in about five minutes.
The reset process works the same whether you log in with a username, email address, or phone number. You will need access to the email address connected to your account.
Key Takeaways
- Go to the Roblox login page, click "Forgot Password or Username", and enter your email address to start a reset.
- Roblox sends a reset link to your email that works for one hour; if it expires, you can request a new one.
- Create a new password that is at least eight characters long and different from passwords you use elsewhere.
- If you no longer have access to your registered email, contact Roblox Support through the help center and be ready to prove you own the account.
How to reset your password using email
Start at www.roblox.com and look for the login form. Below the username and password boxes, click the link that says "Forgot Password or Username?" (the exact wording may vary slightly).
Enter the email address connected to your Roblox account. You do not need to know your username. Click the button to send the reset email. Roblox will send a message to that email address within a few minutes.
Open your email and look for a message from Roblox with the subject line containing "password reset" or similar. Click the link inside the email. This link takes you to a page where you can type a new password. The link expires after one hour, so do this soon after you receive the email.
Type your new password twice to confirm it matches. Roblox requires passwords to be at least eight characters long. After you submit, you can log in with your new password right away.
What to do if you did not receive the reset email
Check your spam or junk folder first. Email providers sometimes filter password reset messages by mistake. If you find it there, mark it as "not spam" so future emails from Roblox go to your inbox.
If the email is not in spam, go back to the password reset page and request a new email. You can do this as many times as you need. Wait a few minutes between requests.
If you still do not receive anything after checking spam and requesting multiple times, the email address on your account may be wrong. This happens when someone else set up the account or when you misremembered which email you used. In this case, you will need to contact Roblox Support.
Contacting Roblox Support when you cannot reset by email
Go to www.roblox.com/support and select "Contact Us". Choose the category "Account" and then "Password". Describe that you cannot reset your password because you do not have access to the registered email address.
Roblox Support will ask you to prove you own the account. Be ready to provide details like the username, the approximate date you created the account, the last game you played, or any Robux purchases you made. The more specific you can be, the faster they can help.
Response times vary. Roblox Support typically replies within a few days, though it can take longer during busy periods. Check your email regularly for their response.
Creating a strong new password
When you reset your password, use something different from passwords you use on other websites. If a hacker somehow gets your Roblox password, you do not want them to also have access to your email, bank account, or other important sites.
A strong password for Roblox does not need to be complicated. Eight characters is the minimum, but ten or more is better. Mix uppercase letters, lowercase letters, numbers, and symbols if you want — for example, "BlueSky2024!" — but a long phrase like "MyDogAte7Socks" works just as well and is easier to remember.
Do not use your username, real name, birth date, or the word "Roblox" in your password. Do not use a password you have used before on any other account.
Protecting your account after resetting your password
After you reset your password, take a moment to check your account security. Log in and go to Settings, then Account. Look at the email address listed there — make sure it is one you still have access to. If it is an old email you no longer use, update it now.
Also check if two-step verification is turned on. This adds an extra layer of protection: even if someone learns your password, they cannot log in without a code from your phone or email. You can turn this on in Settings under Security.
If you see login activity you do not recognize, or if you think someone else accessed your account, change your password again and turn on two-step verification immediately.
Frequently Asked Questions
Can I change my password without resetting it?
Yes. Log in to your account, go to Settings, then Account, then Change Password. You will need to type your current password to confirm the change. This is faster than a reset if you still remember your password.
What if I forgot my username too?
The password reset page lets you enter your email address instead of your username. Roblox will send the reset email to that address, and you can log in with your email once you set a new password.
How long does the password reset link stay active?
The link in the reset email works for one hour. If you do not use it in time, go back to the password reset page and request a new email. There is no penalty for requesting multiple times.
Is my password stored somewhere I can see it?
No. Roblox stores passwords in a way that even Roblox employees cannot read them. This protects you if the company's systems are ever breached. If you forget your password, resetting it is the only way to get back in.
Should I write my new password down?
Writing it on paper and keeping it in a safe place at home is better than using the same password everywhere. A password manager like Bitwarden or 1Password is even safer — it stores passwords encrypted and fills them in automatically.
