    Hi SuperFelix11,

    Thank you for posting in the Microsoft Community Forums.

    Here are the steps to reset a domain user password in Windows 10:

    1. Open the Computer Management tool:
      • Press Win + X, and select "Computer Management".
    2. Expand Local Users and Groups:
      • In the left navigation pane, expand "System Tools" > "Local Users and Groups".
    3. Find the target user:
      • Click "Users", and find the user whose password you need to reset in the right pane.
    4. Reset the password:
      • Right-click the target user, and select "Set Password".

    If you are using Active Directory Domain Services (AD DS) management tools:

    1. Open Active Directory Users and Computers:
      • Press Win + R, type dsa.msc, and press Enter.
    2. Expand your domain:
      • In the left navigation pane, expand your domain and find the Organizational Unit (OU) that contains the user.
    3. Find and reset the target user’s password:
      • In the right pane, find and right-click the target user, then select "Reset Password".

    Best regards

    Are you the domain administrator?

    Does the device successfully connect to domain?
