Post subject:  [SOLVED] Reset Yubico Authenticator Password

Hello,

I've been using the Yubico Authenticator app with a Yubikey Neo and set a password for it once, which I don't remember anymore.
How the password can be set is described here: https://www.yubico.com/wp-content/uploa ... uto,69,209

Now, how can I reset this password, as I can't use my Yubikey without it? Is it possible in any way?

Tobias

You can't reset the password without resetting the YubiOATH applet. Doing so will wipe all stored credentials on the YubiOATH applet. https://developers.yubico.com/ykneo-oath/Reset.html (process works for the YubiKey 4 as well)

I thought so.

That's no problem, I'll just set up the two-factor authentication for my accounts again.

Thank you so much, the command worked fine and I can use my YubiKey again. :)
