Like an idiot, I accidentally deleted my ftp password in RW. Now I need to reset it so that I can publish ‘stuff’. Anyone have any suggestions how to recover the password or just create a new one?

Thanks, Barry

your gonna have to contact your ISP and get the password . They may not store it and require you to reset. It all depends on the policy of your hosting provider
