  1. Dear Space Pilots,

    If you originally created your account through a provider on the Chrome Web Store then you should be asked to migrate your existing account to our internal systems when you log-in soon. Attached, you can find step-by-step instructions on how to do this.

    All the best

    Migration Manual

    Chrome Web Store (Google) | AID=3306

    Background:

    The Chrome Web Store integration is kind of a hybrid solution which enables the users to either register or login with a standard Bigpoint account or with specific third party accounts (Single-Sign-On)
    Example: http://darkorbit.bigpoint.com/cws?aid=3306

    Bigpoint is going to shut down the option of using other authentication provider on CWS. Therefore those users need to be migrated to the Bigpoint Account by providing a valid email address and change their passwords.​

    How to migrate the existing SSO account (step-by-step)

    Step1: You simply need to provide a valid email address. It is important that this is really a valid email, as this will be needed in the following steps and for the confirmation of the password changes.​

    Step2: Follow the steps of the password recovery. The Username should be already prefilled. By pressing next you will receive an email to your previously provided email address containing a link that will allow you to reset your password.​
