🔑 Account Management

Change your password, check for updates, link Discord, and sign out.

In the Kith Workshop desktop app

The Account page is the housekeeping. Your sign-in, your Discord link, your display name, updates, and the way into this guide.

Linking Discord

This is the one that matters most. Your Discord identity is what ties the app to the rest of Kith.

  • Open AccountDiscord.
  • Click to link and approve the prompt.
  • Your avatar and handle appear on the Home Screen.

With Discord linked, the app can show your LFG runs, your Market activity and your orders. Without it, those tools work but cannot tell who you are.

Tip: Unlinking does not delete anything. It just stops the app matching you to your Discord identity until you link again.
Changing your password
  • AccountChange password.
  • Enter your current password, then the new one twice.
  • Confirm.
Updates

The Workshop checks on its own, but you can force it:

  • AccountApp updates → check.
  • If one is available, install it. The app restarts.
  • A What's new note lists what changed.
Note: Updating does not touch your saved data — inventories, builds, linked characters and settings all survive.
Signing out

Signs you out and returns to the login screen. Your data stays on the machine; you will not lose anything.

If something goes wrong
ProblemWhat to do

Password change is rejectedThe current password is wrong, or the new one does not meet requirements.
"Check for updates" finds nothing but you know there is oneReleases roll out in stages. Wait, or reinstall from the download page.
Your display name is not what shows in DiscordThey are separate. This one is for Kith; Discord's is Discord's.
