How to change user password programmatically?

[bienieck]

Hi,

I'm preparing LabVIEW based User Manager (becouse as far I know I cannot run TS User Manager in custom OI). Currently I'm trying to create User Properties Window in which password could be set or changed. To copy the behavior of oryginal properties window I need to unscramble the password. Is there any way to do this or I need to do it differently?

Hi, bienieck,
You can use property of User.Password, which is wirtable.At last, please save Users File using method SaveFileIfModified().
Please refer to the example shipped with TestStand: TestStand API\Creating & Deleting Users Using API\Creating & Deleting Users Using API.seq 

Hope I can help you.

You can use the built in dialog to edit users by calling the DisplayPropertiesDialog method.  Read about it in the TestStand Help.  Here is a screenshot of some LabVIEW code that does it.

Unfortunately I cannot share the entire VI with you as it has some proprietary stuff in it.

Hope this helps,
