Posted May 1, 201410 yr Someone changed the windows password for the local administrator account on a stand alone machine and decided to not write it down!!! Â Luckily I had my fantastic PCMonitor installed! Â I tried doing this using dsmod and going crazy trying to find it then looked into powershell but both were very difficult to use to do this and did not work. Â Again this is a local account and not in AD. Â Then I tried the following at the command shell: Â net user administrator Password1 and the password was changed! Â It would be nice if we could have an interface to change user passwords though... :-)
March 28, 20187 yr Administrators Hi Sam, Unfortunately this is not yet possible but you can reset AD passwords from the AD server module. -Paul
March 28, 20187 yr He mentioned it was not in AD :-)Â Â i agree, it would be nice if there was a bit more user management as well Â
