So forgive me for my stupidity....but for windows wallet, when would you need the password? I don't recall ever making a password. And only option I see is to change passphrase which I also don't remember ever making or seeing. Is this only if you encrypt the wallet or what?
I think he meant passphrase, and yes, passphare is required when your wallet is encrypted.
So should I already have a passphrase? Or if I click to encrypt the wallet, it would then supply me with a passphrase?

If you already have coins in the wallet I recommend you backup this directory before doing anything. Just in case there's a bug or something.

C:\Users\\AppData\Roaming\Signatum

EDIT: If you do get access to the wallet again backup your private keys:

Go to Help/Debug Window/Console and type: "dumpprivkey
" for each of your Signatum addresses. Copy the results and save in a secure place.

Did you upgrade to the newest qt wallet? Is that when the problem started? If so, try downgrading.

I'm not the one having issues. But thanks a lot for the reply. I was just inquiring about the passphrase and password for the Windows wallet because I don't have either of those that I can recall. I do have coin in wallet, but don't have it encrypted currently. I'd like to encrypt it, but I'm a noob and don't want to get locked out of my coins if I'm already suppose to know some password or passphrase
