Logging In

  1. Launch the Core extension in Chrome, and the login screen will appear.

  2. Enter the password and click Login.

  3. To lock the account, click the menu icon in the top-left corner, and select Lock Core.

Logging out

  1. Launch the Core extension in Chrome, and the login screen will appear.

  2. Enter the password and click Login.

  3. To lock the account, click the menu icon in the top-left corner, and select Lock Core.

Reset the wallet

  1. Lock the Wallet from the Settings Menu.

  2. Click Forgot password and it will reset and erase the Core extension so users can start over with a fresh Core extension.

NOTE: Make sure the Recovery Phrase for the wallet is recorded in the event the password to Core is forgotten. If that is the case, users can click Reset Secret Recovery Phrase and access Core again with the Recovery Phrase.

Your password is simply used to encrypt your information locally on your computer. As such, there is no way to recover your password. DO NOT share this with anyone else. No one at Ava Labs or Avalanche Foundation will EVER ask you for your Recovery Phrase, private keys, or password. If this information is given to another party, it will let them access the wallet, and this CAN NOT be reversed.
