I need help.  I was informed about Bitcoin recently and downloaded "Electrum" onto my computer.  I have written down my seed as well as my password and not it's not allowing me to log in and says I have the incorrect password.  I wrote everything down!  Can someone help me in finding out why my pass is not working and how I can retrieve/reset it? 

Much thanks

try to just create a new wallet then and restore from your existing seed. (choose the option 'restore from seed')  your new wallet wont have a password on it (unless you create another one).

Limited in number. Limitless in potential.

To add this, restore the seed you have written down already so you can be able to add a new password and store/keep it on a safe place offline.
