KDE 3 - open the KDE Control Centre (kcontrol) and type kwalletmanager in the search box. KDE 4 - System Settings > Advanced > KDE Wallet However, I've used the wallet for years, and don't see how it is possible to be asked for a non-existent password. Have you tried Enter for the password? That's the nearest guess I can make. Probably your best bet is to delete the old wallet start a new one and deliberately set your password. It's my guess that you simply made a mistake under the pressure of learning something new, and that you won't see the problem again. Hope that helps Anne |
