Change password on ESET virtual drive

How does one change the password on an encrypted virtual drive ?   Can't seem to find this anywhere.

Based on what is shown here: https://support.eset.com/en/kb6209-set-up-security-tools-in-eset-smart-security-premium and here: https://support.eset.com/en/kb6266-eset-secure-data-faq , there is no way to change the password.

Thanks.  I guess the only option is to create a new drive with a new password.   I had created the drive with the "Decrypt Automatically on this Windows account" but I want to change it to a password.  Keeping that option reduces security but it would probably not be good if my computer crashed and I had to use the backup of my virtual drive on a new computer.

I guess I should ask a follow-up question.

In the event of a computer rebuild, if I take the virtual drive file (*.eed) and copy it to a new computer with ESET installed, will I be able to access the content if the drive was created with a password and the "Decrypt Automatically on this Windows account"  option was unchecked?
