I really am not an idiot. I'm just tired of looking for place where I can change my password on this damn website.

Can anyone help?

I'm assuming you read Bob's post with the instructions, but I'd like to know where you looked expecting to be able to change your password. That way we can consider those locations as places to put either instructions on where to go or an actual password change dialog.


I can answer that. ;-)

When you are on a MATLAB Central page, there is no link for "My Account." There is only a link for "My Community Profile." When you go to your profile page, there is still no "My Account" link, but there is a "Customize Your Profile" link. So you click on that link, but the "Customize Your Profile" page does not offer a way to change your password. Ah, but it DOES finally have a "My Account" link at the top.

My conclusion ... if you start on a MATLAB Central web page that does not show the "My Account" link, it can be challenging to figure out how to change your password.
