About This Feature

Overview

Link Email in WPS on Windows is an account security setting in the personal center. It lets you bind a commonly used email address, receive verification codes, and update the linked email when needed.

Core tasks include:

  • Link an email address: Add an available email address to your WPS account so you can receive verification codes and account verification messages.
  • Change the linked email address: Update the email address already linked to your account when your current email changes or needs to be replaced.

This feature is useful for first-time account setup, changing your regular email address, and handling account verification.
