Guide to changing the Administrator account password on a Windows VPS Server via Computer Management.
You can change your VPS password to something easier to remember. Here's how.
Important: Once changed, do not forget your new password. Digitalku does not store your password. If you forget it, the only option is to reinstall the VPS.
Steps
Step 1 — Log In to the VPS
Log in via Remote Desktop using the Administrator account.
Step 2 — Open Computer Management
Double-click Computer Management on the desktop or find it in the Start menu.
Step 3 — Access the Administrator User
- In the left panel, click Local Users and Groups → Users
- Right-click on the Administrator user
- Select Set Password...
- Click Proceed on the confirmation dialog
Step 4 — Enter the New Password
Fill in both New Password and Confirm Password with the same new password.
Password requirements:
- Must contain lowercase letters, uppercase letters, and numbers
- Minimum 3 characters (a longer password is recommended for security)
Step 5 — Click OK
Click OK. A confirmation dialog will appear — click OK again.
Your VPS password has been successfully changed.
