  3. Change my secret answer

    Hi,

    Edward

    I am Lokesh. I am here to help you.

    The problem you found in changing your secret is that you can not use same words for secret answer which you used in your password.

    Type different word in your secret answer.

    Change my secret answer

    I don't know. I was attempting to change my password and I received an error message that said my password cannot contain an of the words in my secret answer. The message then said to change one of them. I would like to change my "secret answer" if possible
