Make sure that your Capslock is not on that can cause problems.

Thanks Michael, I have double check, the Caplock is not on.

Any other options that I can check my password?

Hello,

Make sure you enter the password in the language it was created. For example, if you created your password in English, make sure you enter it in English

Can you help with this problem?
