How to change a computer password
Step 1:
Open your Chromebook. When the computer is at the start screen select the Apps icon.
Choose Renton School District Update/Password from the pop-up window.
Step 2:
Wait for the app to open, then input your OUTLOOK Email address. Then, enter your current password.
Step 3:
Enter your new password. It should be completely different from your old password. You cannot repeat an old password, EVER. I suggest your pick your favorite thing- mine is Puppies, then the numbers of the month and date. Example: Puppies1021
New Password Checklist:
| My Password Includes |
A minimum of 8 characters
|
|---|---|
| My Password does NOT include | My name My student ID number The word "password" The name of the month The name of the season The name of the district |
Once you have entered your new password, click Submit.
Step 4:
A Google screen will pop up and ask for your Google Password - YOU DON'T HAVE ONE
- Tap: "I forgot my password."
- Then tap: "Proceed anyway."
This process has changed your computer password.
