Will changing cPanel password affect my other passwords?

The main username and password are the same for cPanel login, FTP login, and MySQL database access.

When you change your cPanel password, this also changes your main FTP password and main database password. Any FTP users and Database users you created are not affected. Email accounts you created are not affected.
