    Hello:

    What can I do if the wordfence plugin (free version) locekd me out from the site?
    I got an error message saying :
    INSECURE PASSWORD: Your login attempt has been blocked because the password you are using exists on lists of passwords leaked in data breaches.

    But if I want to reset the password wordfence won′t allow me to.
    What can I do?
    Thank you

    J.

  • Hi @javo,

    Can you go into FTP and rename the folder /wp-content/plugins/wordfence/ -> wp-content/plugins/wordfence-old/?

    Then once you can login, change your password to something more secure, and then re-enable Wordfence.
