# Self Service Center
|
|
|
|
First you need to log in to the **Self Service Center** at https://user.disroot.org and choose to **change password**.
|
|

# Nextcloud's Encryption Key
|
|
|
|
Once you changed your password in the **Self Service Center** you will need to make sure to change your encryption key in **Nextcloud**, since all your files in **Nextcloud** are encrypted with a key that is generated from your password.
|
|
1. Go to **[https://cloud.disroot.org](https://cloud.disroot.org)** and log in with your new password.
|
|
You will see a yellow message on top of the page:<br>
|
|
`Invalid private key for Encryption App. Please update your private key password in your personal settings to recover access to your encrypted files.`
|
|
2. Click on your name in the top right corner and select **Personal** from the menu.
|
|
3. Scroll down to **Nextcloud basic encryption module** and type in your old password and your new password and click **Update Private Key Password**.
|
|
4. Log out of **Nextcloud** and log back in and that's it, you're all set and can view your file again.
|
|
|
|
!! 
|
|
!! **NOTE!** If you lose your password, you won't be able to retrieve your files on the cloud as they're encrypted, so even the server administrators can't see their content.
