If you had already registered your account at MyPlesk.com/Plesk360/Platform360 please use one for login. Otherwise please re-register it using the same email address as your existing Zendesk login (support account). It’s essential that you use the same email address on our support center to ensure that your tickets stay attached to the same account.

    It should be noted that, while this information is correct, if someone is looking for changing a customer user's pwd to access the control panel, then it is needed to go to "Customers", then select the one you need to change, and go to the right pane where the option "Change login info", and proceed to change the password or use the reset link.
