Tech Tip 101 – Reset Users Password from command Prompt

To change a user’s password at the command prompt, log on as an administrator and type:net user user_name * /domain
When you are prompted to type a password for the user, type the new password, not the existing password. After you type the new password, the system prompts you to retype the password to confirm. The password is now changed. Alternatively, you can type the following command:
net user user_name new_password
