  1. How to find current expiring temporary password so as to change it


    Windows 11 is prompting me to change my password, which apparently is only a temporary password. However, I can’t because I don’t know the current password, which was set by the technician who rescued my computer about a month ago after multiple hardware and software bugs locked me out. I tried Alt-F8 at the Old Password line but received the following message: “Configuration information could not be read from the domain controller, either because the machine is unavailable, or access has been denied.” I can’t call the tech who set the password until tomorrow, when his shop ope

  3. I have applied force password change for Azure AD users, but after the password expired user able to login with the password in device. I want to apply the password change prompt.

    Currently, we have three ways to login into the system.



    1. Password through
    2. PIN through
    3. Fingerprint through

    Now, we have a policy in place for 60 days, the password should expire. Ideally, the user should get a prompt up on the screen at the time of password expiration, to change the password.



    In case the user logs in through PIN or Fingerprint, MS Teams, and MS outlook such an application should prompt up to.



    But that is not happening. So we need to implement this forcefully and the user has to change the password(in case of password expires) login into the system.

    Hi,

    Thank you for posting your response.

    Before we proceed, I would like you to provide the information stated below:

    1. Which version of Windows 10 is currently installed in your computer?

    2. Are you using a Microsoft Account to log into your computer?

    To open System Properties and check the version of Windows, follow the steps below:

    1. Open Run Command (Windows button+R).

    2. In the dialog box type control system and hit enter.

    If you are using a Microsoft Account to log into your system and you are unable to change the password, then I would suggest that you sign in online and change your password. Follow the steps below to do so.

    • 1. Click on the link below to open the Microsoft site, and then select
      Security & privacy.
    https://account.microsoft.com/about

    • Select Change password.

    • Enter your current password, then the new password you want, then enter the new password again.

    • Select Save.
    Hope this information helps.
