Q:

I have reset my password 3 times and while I can login to the account section through a web browser the launcher will not accept my password.

I have tried the account recovery and reset my password but still I get the error that account name or password is invalid, both of them are correct afaik.

I will have to submit a ticket. I am having this same problem with the launcher not accepting my password. I can log into the website just fine using my email and password, but if i use my display name it does not accept. I’ve changed the password, but still no acceptance using the display name.

To log into the game you must not use your display name, but the email address associated with your account, just as you do to log into the forums. Hopefully doing so will alleviate your problem. Good luck. =)

Make sure there are no spaces left at the end of the password.
