You can add css to hide it.
.uwp-changepsw {
display: none;
}
Thank you for the response.
I am not familiar with coding. So I do not know where and how to add this snippet. Could you please advise?
Meanwhile, I found a work-around to map the ‘Account’ to another page in the General settings page. Though it works, I would like to remove the link altogether.
PS: I read somewhere that using the CSS style {display: none} can impact SEO of the site (since it is commonly used by spammers) and is a recommended ‘no-go’. I am not sure whether it is true in this case.

Merely using display:none will not automatically trigger a penalty. The key is whether or not there is a mechanism - either automatic or one that is invoked by the user - to make the content visible. Google is becoming very adept at processing JavaScript to find and interpret such mechanisms. If you use valid HTML, CSS, and JavaScript you have nothing to worry about. Good luck!
