Hi @distant ridge. I'm kapa.ai, your friendly support bot. I will try to answer your question by searching through the knowledge base. :wave:
If you initially created your OpenAI account using Google authentication, you generally cannot change your authentication method to a password-based one. The authentication method used during the initial registration is the one you should continue using. Deleting your account does not allow you to change your authentication method either.
However, if you originally signed up for OpenAI with an email and password, in future logins, you can choose Google/Apple login. This allows users in that situation to log in either way.
If you need to reset your Google password, you'll need to do so on Google's site.
