One of the my blog reader, came across one of the article written on generating random password gui using powershell by me, and he contacted me as he wanted a small help on creating one GUI utility ADUser reset password. Below are the detailed information he provided in the email what exactly he needed.
- Allow you to enter a 4 character user ID (their AD account) and the gui will reset the password with 15 random characters. eg. userid = PATR
- Allow you to enter a 9 character user ID (their admin account) and the gui will reset the password with 20 random characters. eg userid = PATRAdmin
- Once the Helpdesk member enters the user ID, the GUI will reset the password with 15 or 20 and check the change password on next login. It will also display the password and allow them to copy it.
I took my little time and build this small GUI script for him, This script is completely built using Visual studio and used OS Windows 10. I am using Windows 2016 Active directory module to reset password of ad user. The user didn't ask for Manager/TL automated password email send function, but I added it to this utility as a extra feature. There are two files required, first is conf.ini file, contents are as below, You can modify the content as per your need. Ps1 file also listed below. Before running script you follow my earlier related blogs.
Installing, importing and using any module in powershell
Different ways to bypass Powershell execution policy :.ps1 cannot be loaded because running scripts is disabled
[Emailserver]
From=noreply_helpdesk@vcloud-lab.com
SMTPServer=192.168.34.11
Port=25
Once launched the script, password reset successful, and in the last password is sent, I am receiving it in email with all the information, I hope this will be helpful to you as well.
Download this script from here, it is also available on github.com.

.SYNOPSIS
This script Generates a random strong password.
.DESCRIPTION
The New-RandomPassword generates a random strong password from mix of capital letters, small letters, symbols (Special Characters) and numbers, All the parameter only accept numeric values.
.PARAMETER PasswordLength
PasswordLength parameter prompts for password length, If this parameter is not defined by default it creates 12 digit mix characters. This parameter cannot be used with other SmallLetter, Capitalletter, Symbol and Number.
