Changing login keyring password in Ubuntu

In Ubuntu whenever you change your log-in password the system does not change the internal password automatically like the  keyring password. So here's the guide on how to change that manually in your system.

-Click on the Applications (most of the time it is on the upper right corner of the desktop)
-Click on the Accessories
-Click on the Password and Encryption Keys
-Click on the 'Password' tab (Usually you are automatically in there)
-Right click on the 'Passwords: login'
-Select on Change Password

 It will now ask you to change the keyring password by typing your current/old password then input the new one.

In most cases the current keyring password is the same as your log-in password.
