# The Control Panel

After activation of the server ordered at the Contabo data center, the «[*Virtual Servers*](https://billing.spacecore.pro/billmgr#/?func=vds\&clickstat=yes\&p_num=1)» section will be a toolbar for working with the service. Among the available options are server restart, system reinstallation, and change of password from root user.

## Changing the password

When clicking on the corresponding button, you will see a window for specifying a new password. A strong password can be generated automatically. As follows from the description, after starting the operation, it will take some time to make changes and restart the server.
