    Ability to adjust password reset link on the Windows 10 sign-in screen


    Hello, I work for a college and we are considering using the Okta self-service password reset tool for our employee and student Active Directory accounts, but Okta does not have an agent that can be deployed to allow access to reset passwords from the Windows 10 sign-in screen.


    So we either need to deploy a number of kiosks that automatically login and take the user to the Okta password reset website or we need to find an application that allows us to modify the "forgot my password" link so that it can open a secure browser to the Okta password reset website.


    I know that something like this is possible as we currently use the Quest Password Manager self-service password reset solution and it includes an agent that modifies the "forgot my password" link to open their password reset solution from the Windows 10 logon screen, and I have seen other password reset solutions have similar tools as well.


    Does anyone know of a tool that allows us to open a locked down browser no address bar or navigation tools, just the content of the specified password reset site where we can specify the home page it opens?


    For example, if you click on the "Forgot my password" link, it opens an instance of the Edge browser in kiosk mode with no navigation tools other than the close button which closes the browser and returns you to the sign in screen that immediately opens the https://passwordreset.collegesite.com page that allows the user to reset their password. When they are done, they simply click the "X" button to close the browser window, which returns them to the logon screen where they can login using their newly reset password.


    Thanks for the help,


    Jeremy Hawks

  3. RECOVERING ADMINISTRATOR PASSWORD WITHOUT PASSWORD RESET DISC

    Hi, Cristhian, and thanks for your reponse.

    I have taken a look at the article you suggested, and I have a problem with the very first step: "On your sign in screen for Windows 10 click on the following link – “I forgot my password”.

    I don't have that option! When I try to sign in, the only option I am given is to "Reset my Password."

    I did click on that and went through all the steps, but Microsoft tells me I have to wait a month before my password will be reset.
