Choose your password, which should include special characters, numbers, uppercase, and lowercase letters.

Then, input the error message that appears when the user enters the wrong password. For instance, if your password is “Abc@1234,” the error message could be “Please Enter Correct Password.” Feel free to customize error messages like “Wrong Choice,” “Incorrect Password,” or “Contact Admin for Password.“
