I had to recover my password a few days ago, and it gave me a new login password. However, when I try to change it now, it tells me that the current password is too short.

Baffling. Can anyone help with this?
Thanks,

If it says it is too short then pick a longer one. When we changed over to the new version (however long ago that was) the requirements for password changed. It needs to be longer and I think it also requires at least one number and maybe even a capital letter.
Try to think of a new one that fills all of these requirements and see if you have more success
