# Change user passwords

1. If you have not already done so, in the Change Center of the Administration Console, click Lock & Edit (see Use the Change Center).
2. In the left pane, expand Compatibility Security > Users.
3. Click the name of the user whose password you want to change.
4. On the Settings page, enter the old password.
5. Enter a new password in the New Password field.
6. Enter the new password again in the Confirm New Password field and click Save.
7. To activate these changes, in the Change Center of the Administration Console, click Activate Changes.
   Not all changes take effect immediately—some require a restart (see Use the Change Center).
