You cannot see your Roblox password directly, but you can reset it
Roblox does not show you your password anywhere in your account settings — the site stores passwords encrypted, which means even Roblox staff cannot read them back to you. If you need to know your password, the only real option is to reset it to something new. This takes about five minutes and works whether you remember your old password or not.
The reset process sends a link to the email address connected to your account. You click that link, create a new password, and you are done. You do not need to contact Roblox support or wait for a response — the whole thing happens when ready on your computer.
Key Takeaways
- Roblox passwords are encrypted and cannot be displayed in your account settings or retrieved by support staff.
- To reset your password, go to the Roblox login page and click "Forgot Password or Username" to receive a reset link by email.
- You must have access to the email address tied to your account — if you do not, you will need to recover that email first.
- The password reset link expires after a few hours, so complete the reset soon after you request it.
- If you are already logged in and just want to change your password, go to Settings > Password and enter your current password to set a new one.
Reset your password from the login page
Start at the main Roblox login page (roblox.com). Below the password field, you will see a link that says "Forgot Password or Username?" Click it. You will be taken to a recovery page that asks for either your username or the email address on your account — enter whichever one you remember.
Roblox will send a password reset link to the email address connected to your account. Open your email (Gmail, Outlook, Yahoo, or whatever service you use), find the message from Roblox, and click the reset link inside. This link takes you to a page where you type in a new password twice to confirm it. Once you submit, your password is changed when ready and you can log in with the new one.
The reset link usually works for a few hours after Roblox sends it. If you wait too long, the link will expire and you will need to start over. If you do not see the email within a few minutes, check your spam or junk folder — sometimes email filters catch it by mistake.
Change your password while you are already logged in
If you are already logged into Roblox but want to change your password, you do not need to go through the reset process. Click the gear icon in the top right corner of the page to open your account menu, then select "Settings." On the left side, click "Password."
The password page will ask you to enter your current password first, then type your new password twice. Once you submit, your password changes right away. You stay logged in — you do not have to sign out and back in.
What to do if you cannot access your email
If you forgot your password and also cannot get into the email address tied to your account, you will need to contact Roblox support. Go to the help page (roblox.com/support) and look for the option to report an account issue. Explain that you cannot access your email and ask them to help you regain control of your account.
Roblox support will ask you questions to verify you own the account — things like what games you play, when you created it, or what you remember spending Robux on. This can take a few days. Keep your responses detailed and honest; vague answers slow down the process.
Protect your new password
Once you have reset your password, do not write it down on paper or in a text file on your computer. Instead, use a password manager — a program that stores passwords encrypted and fills them in for you automatically. Common options include Bitwarden (free), 1Password, or LastPass. A password manager means you only have to remember one master password, and it generates strong passwords for each site.
Make your new Roblox password at least 12 characters long and mix in uppercase letters, numbers, and symbols. Avoid passwords based on your name, birthday, or anything someone could guess from your social media. The longer and more random it is, the harder it is for someone else to break into your account.
Why Roblox does not show passwords
Websites encrypt passwords so that even if someone breaks into the company's computers, they cannot read the actual passwords. Roblox stores only a scrambled version — a one-way code that cannot be reversed back into the real password. This is why support staff cannot look up your password and tell it to you, and why you cannot see it in your settings.
If a website ever shows you your password in plain text, that is a red flag that the site is not protecting your data properly. Roblox does this correctly by keeping passwords hidden and only letting you reset them.
Frequently Asked Questions
Can Roblox support tell me what my password is?
No. Roblox stores passwords encrypted, so even support staff cannot read them. They can only help you reset it to something new. If you contact support, they will guide you through the reset process or help you recover your email if that is the problem.
What if I reset my password but still cannot log in?
Make sure you are typing the new password correctly — passwords are case-sensitive, meaning uppercase and lowercase letters are different. If you are still stuck, try resetting again. If the problem continues, contact Roblox support and describe exactly what error message you see when you try to log in.
How long does the password reset email take to arrive?
Usually a few minutes. If you do not see it after 10 minutes, check your spam folder. If it is not there either, go back to the reset page and request a new link. Sometimes email takes longer than expected, but usually it is fast.
Can I see my password if I save it in my browser?
Most browsers let you view saved passwords in their settings, but this only works on the computer where you saved it. Go to your browser settings and look for "Passwords" or "Saved Passwords" — you may need to enter your computer password to see them. This is not the same as Roblox showing you the password; it is your browser's own storage.
What should I do if someone else knows my password?
Reset it when ready using the steps above. Then check your account settings to see if anything looks wrong — like a different email address, changed privacy settings, or purchases you did not make. If you see suspicious activity, contact Roblox support right away and describe what happened.
