Resetting Passwords

You can reset the password for people without requiring knowledge of their old passwords. If that person has user accounts in Active Directory and other connected account stores, EmpowerID will reset that password for the person as well as for each user account joined to that person.

Reset a Person's Password

    This opens the Reset Password for Person and Their Accounts form.

    • Reset Password For — Search for and select the EmpowerID Person whose passwords you want to reset.
