    Security Token Emergency Removal Password

    Someone I know just lost their security token and don't know their Emergency Removal password. Best I can figure out is they need to contact support to get it removed from their account.

    I enabled my token many years ago (FFXI) and don't have my Emergency Removal password. I'd like to find out what it is and record it to avoid problems in the future. On the support center, it says this:

    Please note that your Emergency Removal Password will need to be recorded beforehand because it can only be seen after you log in to your Square Enix account.

    So, I should be able to find the emergency password on my SE account page. It either isn't there or it's buried in typical SE illogical UI layering. Can anyone point me to how to find it?

    Login to the Square Enix Account Management. The Emergency Removal Password should be on the immediate page in red text somewhere in the box in the middle.

    Please give the OP a thorough read before you post, if possible.

    All you can do is contact support, Live chat is the best way I have used, but they get this fixed instantly, they just ask for some info on your account like email address and date of birth to prove your identity.

    Also the emergency removal password is only provided with the software token, as far as I know if you have a keyfob type you will not get one, and if you loose it you have to contact support to get it removed.

    Posting in the general forums without contacting Support first? smh...

    A simple search on the account management site: I lost my SQUARE ENIX Security Token.

    Please give the OP a thorough read before you post. Thanks!
