PsPasswd is a command line tool that lets systems administrators change an account password on the local or remote systems.
As part of regular security measures, system administrators who oversee local administrative accounts on several computers may need to alter the account password.
PsPasswd is a handy tool for system administrators that enables them to easily change the administrator account's password on both local and remote systems. This tool offers the convenience of creating batch files, which makes it possible to execute mass password changes on multiple computers simultaneously. With PsPasswd, administrators can save considerable time and effort that would otherwise be spent on individually changing passwords on each system.
PsPasswd utilizes the password reset APIs in Windows, ensuring that passwords are not transmitted over the network in plain text.
