Reveal hidden contents Quote ADragonCalledGeorge wrote: First of all I wanted to thank you Dark0ne for all your help in making the Nexus what it is today! Skyrim is my favourite game of all time and I love using mods and looking through new mods and watching mod reviews on YouTube etc. Shame I can't make mods myself but I'm nowhere near smart enough. Anyhow, I ran into a slight problem. Basically my account is very very old (2 or 3 years old. At the time I used an alternative email address to my current one since I got a new one after a while and I forgot the password and stuff to that account. I also can't seem to remember this password since I had my PC set to remember this password automatically.I want to change my password and email address but I cannot remember my details so I am afraid I cannot change them. I was wondering what I should do now. I tried recovering my email through the official methods (I have Yahoo!Mail) but nothing works. Any thoughts on what I should do next? I payed for Premium membership ages ago so I would hate to lose that functionality if I make a new password. Many thanks in advance and keep up the great work!! :)Since you set up your browser to remember passwords, you should be able to retrieve them. For Firefox it is something like " Edit -> Preferences -> Securtity -> Saved Passwords ". Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
