We have a few Windows devices at our institution which students use for e-learning. Due to a shortage of devices, there are multiple student accounts on a single device. One of the student’s accounts has been locked. Is there a way to reset the password of that particular account without affecting other accounts or resetting the device?
You can do this from your device. Go to Control Panel > User Accounts > User Accounts > Manage Accounts > name of account password to be changed > Change Password. Enter the new passwords and you are done.
I also forget my account passwords sometimes so I do this all the time.
