Password reset is a feature that allows users to change their passwords when they forgot them and failed to log in.
Select whether to allow password reset, considering users' usage scenarios.

Even when users are allowed to reset their passwords, they cannot reset their passwords if any of the following conditions is true:

• No e-mail address is set in kintone.com
• The e-mail address of the user is also used for another user
• kintone.com is the only way for the user to receive e-mail

If any of these conditions apply, the users cannot send/receive password reset e-mails. Therefore, the users will no longer be able to reset their passwords by themselves.

Check that the e-mail address that is used when resetting password is registered in kintone.com.
