Hello all.
I wonder, how do I get this passkey?
I want to participate to see if I can ear EVGA bucks & if I cant I still will leave my computer to work.
So the team nr was 111065
I used the same nickname on all my 3 computers which is this.
But i created my own passkey or do I need a specific key to join the EVGA Bucks earning?

    Passkey should follow you every machine you use to fold. If you have one already, keep using it. If you don't; register for one: https://apps.foldingathome.org/getpasskey and input it to all of your machines ASAP.

    To directly answer your question:

    Folding at home will email you your pass key. Just copy and paste it from the email once you receive it.

    I flagged my pass key email so that I can sort the emails and find it later very quickly. It’s rare to have to reinstall FAH, but it definitely helps to have the pass key quick and easy to find if you need it.

    I even forward it to my secondary email for safe storage

    So.... i could use some passkey clarification help, I got my pass key from my email sent to me by F@H but when I input it and save it in my change my identity page all of my hard earned points disappear from my home screen and all of my points disappear from my contribution to my chosen team. Does inputting a passkey reset my progress Back to ZERO or do my points come back after a “verification or identification process” ?

    Good question .. as most get the Passkey in the first day
     
    The passkey is your identifier ...... I'm not sure they will pull you past points based on just the User name
     
    check here --->https://stats.foldingathome.org/donor/"Your user name - No quotes"
     
     
    The above site shows All folding under your user name ... many like the Extreme site ... it Is Handy ... but not the official F@H site
     
     
    Oh man ... I see a Big Error .... Team should read 111065   Fix it Quick

    Just wondering one more thing about this passkey.
    What can happen if someone else copies my passkey?

    They can fold in your name and give you points.
    They can fold in your name and delete WUs or crank up the OC to get bad results. 
    If they do that with enough WUs you will no longer get the quick return bonus.
    You have to maintain a 80% good WU result or no QRB.
     
    So it's best not to give your number out.
