How do I change my email address?

Each Nexus Mods account is assigned to a unique email address. It is important to keep your email address up to date - if you lose access to your email account and forget your password you may be unable to recover your account

Changing your email address

To update your email address navigate to the "Account Settings" section of the website, found by clicking your avatar in the top right corner of the page. 

Navigate to the "Security" tab in your account area and select the "Change email" option.

Enter your current password and the new email address you wish to use. If you have 2-Factor Authentication enabled, you will need to enter a key generated by your authenticator app as well.

After submitting the form you should receive an email containing a link which you will have to click on to confirm the change. 

Note: You cannot log into the site with your new email address until you confirm it. 

If you have mistyped your email address, you can restart the process in the security tab. If you are having problems receiving the email, please see: I am not receiving emails from Nexus Mods. What can I do?

For additional support with email issues, please contact support@nexusmods.com from the email address currently linked to your account.
