Changed password problems


I recently changed my password on the secureanywhere web interface and it works fine, but when I want to go into Password tab on the webroot site it shows " try again later or wait 5 minutes". Image of popup i.imgur.com/47ZbbX6.jpg

The other problem I'm having is the webroot password manage app for firefox wants me to use the old password to log on not the new password.

I have closed firefox cleared cache and cookies restarted the pc and still having the problem.
Thank you
 
P.S. This was post to support and they wrote back on how to change my primary  email.

Hi TripleHelix

Did you do a complete OS reinstall? Also did you deactivate the old entry for the same system on the online Console? Have a look at these 2 KB articles to see if you did it correct? https://community.webroot.com/t5/Webroot-SecureAnywhere-Antivirus/How-to-Deactivate-a-PC/ta-p/31240 and https://community.webroot.com/t5/Webroot-SecureAnywhere-Complete/How-to-Reactivate-a-PC/ta-p/28954

Hi TripleHelix
 
Yes, that was the way i removed the duplicate Redacted-PC (that showed up after a complete system recovery) as well as the Laptop-PC shortly after it went through a system crash. I was hunting everywhere for a cure to the password problem and I found something that i wasn't looking for so i decided why not?
 
this idea has just occured to me and i am now fairly certain that this particular problem lies in the way the browser webroot toolbar interacts with the system. i am having the exact same problem as in the previous thread i posted "can not access program on my system" which had been solved (but only temporarily). i have uninstalled and reinstalled the toolbar. and it works good for the first time i log in, after that it's gone back to the oldest password i ever started with.

When you say Recovery do you mean a system Recovery from a partition or a complete Windows Reinstall with the DVD?

Did you try another Browser to Contact Support? Can you do it from another PC? You can call them as well just call the one closes to you! http://www.webroot.com/us/en/company/contact-us

Hi Daniel
 
yes, that is exactly what i mean not a restore or (i didn't even know this one existed until Windows 8.1, a "refresh") which is a cross between the restore and the recovery...  the refresh reinstalls the OS without effecting any user documents. it DOES however completely overwrites Program Files and Program Files (x86) thereby eleminating any programs you may have installed, unless you installed those programs somewhere under UsersUSERNAME.
 
the recovery was from the partition, not the 1 time only dvd's i was allowed to create
 
i just did use another browser on that link, but that "start here" button sent me to a place i had already been, perhaps a phone call is in order??!?  lol

I think things are messed up because of the in place upgrade or refresh so your going to have to contact support some how to get it sorted as I think it's because how Webroot controls it's keycodes from being installed on more then you are aloud it's nothing we can do on the Community I will ping @ & @ and they will see this tomorrow during working hours. And Brian looks after the Best Buy Subscriptions on Webroot's end.
 
Sorry I couldn't help more,
