<h2 class="p1" style="color: rgba(0, 0, 0, 0.85); margin-right: 0px; margin-bottom: 10.7px; margin-left: 0px;">Step-by-Step Guide to Reset Your Steam Account Password</h2>

<ol>
 <li class="li3" style="color: rgba(0, 0, 0, 0.85); margin: 0px;">The first step to resetting your password is to navigate to the Steam website or login page. Click &ldquo;Help, I can&rsquo;t sign in.&rdquo;&nbsp;</li>
 <li class="li4" style="color: #1d1f20; margin: 0px;">Alternatively, you can start the password reset process via <a href="https://help.steampowered.com/">help.steampowered.com</a> by clicking &ldquo;Help, I can&rsquo;t sign in.&rdquo;&nbsp;</li>
 <li class="li3" style="color: rgba(0, 0, 0, 0.85); margin: 0px;">When prompted, choose either &ldquo;I forgot my Steam account name or password&rdquo; or &ldquo;My Steam account was stolen, and I need help recovering it.&rdquo;&nbsp;</li>
 <li class="li4" style="color: #1d1f20; margin: 0px;">If your account hasn&rsquo;t been hijacked, choose &ldquo;I forgot my Steam account name or password.&rdquo; You&rsquo;ll be prompted to enter your email address or phone number. Be sure to complete the Captcha challenge before clicking &ldquo;Search.&rdquo;&nbsp;</li>
 <li class="li3" style="color: rgba(0, 0, 0, 0.85); margin: 0px;">Next, head to your inbox to look for a Steam email with the subject line &ldquo;Steam Account Recovery.&rdquo; Click the blue &ldquo;Resume Recovery&rdquo; box in the email, and you&rsquo;ll be prompted to reset your password. You can also reset your email address at this time, if you wish.&nbsp;</li>
 <li class="li3" style="color: rgba(0, 0, 0, 0.85); margin: 0px;">If you chose &ldquo;My Steam account was stolen, and I need help recovering it,&rdquo; you&rsquo;ll have to complete two steps before recovering your account.&nbsp;</li>
 <li class="li3" style="color: rgba(0, 0, 0, 0.85); margin: 0px;">Once you&rsquo;ve scanned your computer for viruses, keyloggers, spyware, or other types of malware, be sure to change your email account password.&nbsp;</li>
 <li class="li3" style="color: rgba(0, 0, 0, 0.85); margin: 0px;">Finally, scroll to the bottom of the page and click &ldquo;Reset my password&rdquo; or return to the login page to begin the password reset process.&nbsp;</li>
</ol>
<h2 class="p2" style="color: #0f374e; margin: 0px 0px 5.3px;">Alternative Recovery Methods&nbsp;</h2>
Want more recovery options? Set up the Steam Guard Mobil Authenticator and add a phone number for a seamless recovery process.&nbsp;
To set up the authenticator, download the Steam mobile app on the <a href="https://store.steampowered.com/mobile#mobile_section">Steam Mobile page</a>.&nbsp;
<a href="https://help.steampowered.com/en/faqs/view/6891-E071-C9D9-0134">Once you've installed the app</a> and logged in with your Steam account credentials, you should see the <a href="https://help.steampowered.com/en/faqs/view/6891-E071-C9D9-0134">Steam Guard tab</a>.&nbsp;&nbsp;
<ol>
 <li class="li3" style="color: rgba(0, 0, 0, 0.85); margin: 0px;">Select "Add authenticator" to start.&nbsp;</li>
 <li class="li3" style="color: rgba(0, 0, 0, 0.85); margin: 0px;">Next, enter your phone number.&nbsp;</li>
 <li class="li3" style="color: rgba(0, 0, 0, 0.85); margin: 0px;">A Steam confirmation code will be sent to your phone.&nbsp;</li>
 <li class="li3" style="color: rgba(0, 0, 0, 0.85); margin: 0px;">Enter the code you receive, and Steam will send you a Recovery Code.&nbsp;&nbsp;</li>
 <li class="li3" style="color: rgba(0, 0, 0, 0.85); margin: 0px;">After the Steam mobile authenticator is enabled, you'll have three options for Steam logins:&nbsp;</li>
</ol>
<ul>
 <li class="li3" style="color: rgba(0, 0, 0, 0.85); margin: 0px;">Use the mobile app to scan the QR code shown by Steam&nbsp;</li>
 <li class="li3" style="color: rgba(0, 0, 0, 0.85); margin: 0px;">Enter your name and password before confirming your login through a Steam app notification&nbsp;</li>
 <li class="li3" style="color: rgba(0, 0, 0, 0.85); margin: 0px;">Enter your name and password and then the Steam Guard account verification code from the mobile app&nbsp;</li>
</ul>
<h2 class="p2" style="color: #0f374e; margin: 0px 0px 5.3px;">Why Use LastPass to Avoid Password Issues&nbsp;</h2>

<h2 class="p2" style="color: #0f374e; margin: 0px 0px 5.3px;">Security Tips to Protect Your Steam Account&nbsp;</h2>
As a savvy gamer, you know why you&rsquo;re a high-value target to scammers. These bad actors can commit identity theft, make unauthorized purchases, steal your game items, and delete thousands of hours of gameplay &ndash; just by hijacking your account.&nbsp;
Using a password manager like LastPass is only the first step in protecting your Steam account.&nbsp;
The next is to update your password so it complies with the newest <a href="https://pages.nist.gov/800-63-4/sp800-63b/passwords/">NIST guidance on creating strong passwords</a>. You can use the LastPass <a href="https://www.lastpass.com/features/password-generator">password generator</a> to create passwords that meet both <a href="https://steamcommunity.com/discussions/forum/1/3458220484822790379/">Steam</a> and NIST length and complexity requirements.&nbsp;
To complete a password change, open the <a href="https://store.steampowered.com/about/">Steam client</a> and select &ldquo;Steam&rdquo; in the upper left and then &ldquo;Account Details&rdquo; under your username in the upper right. Next, select &ldquo;Change my Password&rdquo; under &ldquo;Account Security.&rdquo;&nbsp; 
&nbsp; 
Choose the option to send an account verification code to your email address. You must enter the 5-character code you receive to create a new password.&nbsp;
Finally, enabling 2FA (two-factor authentication) with Steam Guard email verification or the Steam Guard Mobile Authenticator protects your account from unauthorized access by requiring an additional verification code for each login.&nbsp;&nbsp;
<h2 class="p9" style="color: #0f374e; margin: 0px 0px 5.3px;">Additional Help and Resources&nbsp;</h2>
Has a bad actor changed your email address, password, and phone number?&nbsp;&nbsp;
If so, we recommend <a href="https://help.steampowered.com/en/faqs/view/5107-700D-89B4-A4CD">contacting Steam support</a>. You&rsquo;ll have to provide the following to help in recovering your account:&nbsp;
<ul>
 <li class="li7" style="color: #386573; margin: 0px;"><a href="https://help.steampowered.com/en/faqs/view/40A0-8B4B-B54B-C51A">Proof of account ownership</a></li>
 <li class="li3" style="color: rgba(0, 0, 0, 0.85); margin: 0px;">Any possible Steam Account login names&nbsp;</li>
 <li class="li3" style="color: rgba(0, 0, 0, 0.85); margin: 0px;">Any possible email addresses connected to your Steam account&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;</li>
</ul>
<h2 class="p9" style="color: #0f374e; margin: 0px 0px 5.3px;">Final Thoughts&nbsp;</h2>
With <a href="https://store.steampowered.com/explore/upcoming/">new Steam releases</a> on the horizon, you can look forward to a diverse range of titles and immersive experiences.&nbsp;
But beware: As exciting gameplay opportunities emerge, a <a href="https://malwaretips.com/blogs/steam-gift-card-scam/">new wave of gift card scams</a> is flooding the Steam platform, posing a significant threat to your safety and financial wellbeing.&nbsp;
The most recent scam targets Steam users on Discord, offering fake $50 Steam gift cards for free. From Discord, users are redirected to a phishing site masquerading as a Steam login page. Once users enter their login credentials, the scammers can hijack their accounts and use those compromised accounts to send out more fake gift card offers.&nbsp;&nbsp;
Essentially, <a href="https://steamcommunity.com/discussions/forum/7/601891815092668174/">hijacked accounts are used to distribute phishing links</a> that ensnare yet more Steam users in the elaborate gift card scam.&nbsp;
The easiest and most effective way to protect yourself, though, is to use a password manager, like LastPass.&nbsp;&nbsp;
Don&rsquo;t wait to enjoy peace of mind: Sign up for a free 30-day trial of LastPass Premium (no credit card, no commitments) and join <a href="https://www.g2.com/products/lastpass/reviews">millions of satisfied users</a> worldwide.&nbsp;&nbsp;
