This is an option they selected in admin. It’s done to increase security and is not a reflection on how GPWA feels about you. They have been under attack lately and I would imagine they are just trying to baton down the hatches a little.
FYI
The easy way around this is to enter a NEW password. Then once the system regsiters your NEW password you can go back into the control panel and change it to the password you prefer. That way the system doesnt see what you are doing as entering the old password :hattip:
