Step 1. Open up a web page and go to my.yahoo.com
Step 2. Choose “Please sign in” from the upper side of the page. The familiar Yahoo login form appears.
Step 3. Click on ‘I can’t access my account’. Yahoo offers you three scenarios. Since you forgot your password, we’ll choose ‘I have a problem with my password’. Click Next.

We’ll choose email.
Step 6: Yahoo sends you password resetting instructions on your mail address. Let’s now log in to the mail account and see what they are.
Go to your Inbox, open the email from Yahoo.
Step 7: Click on the “Reset My Password” link.
Yahoo asks you for a new password to be typed and re-typed. Make sure you incorporate letters and numbers into your password. Click Next.
