In this guide, I am going to tell you the top three ways to change passwords in Outlook. We know Outlook is the most preferred and trusted email client around the globe.
If you want to update profile password in Outlook, then you must change it in the following places:
- Email account with an email provider (Gmail, Office 365, iCloud, Exchange Server, etc).
- A desktop utility such as Microsoft Outlook.
