And what we’re talking about here is recovering your account if you’ve totally forgotten your password. Whether you’ve forgotten your Facebook password, or have had someone else change it without your permission, Facebook offers a pretty simple way to recover.
If you’ve forgotten your Facebook password, you can’t really recover that same password, but it’s easy enough to recover your account by resetting your password to something new. If you don’t use a password manager, those complex passwords can be pretty hard to remember.
