Trouble updating the profile?

If after clicking Update on the profile you see an error messages, for example, ‘Can’t verify the user‘, try updating the account again in a Guest Profile or a new User Profile. An Extension or some Setting may cause the issue in the browser’s main profile.

In case updating account information didn’t work in a clean profile either, please report the issue to us using the contact form below.
