Reset user

This dialog box can be used to reset a user and thus enable him to log in again if he has forgotten his password. This user's data remains unchanged. For a user with bank connection, the keys are also deleted so that the user must reinitialize with all banks.

Enter a temporary password in both text fields, which the user must enter the next time he logs in. This can be less complex than specified in the password requierements. The user will see the wizard described in section Initialization. Thus, the procedure is the same as for creating a new user.

By default, resetting also removes the user's two-factor authentication so that the user only needs the temporary password for the next login. The user must then set up his two-factor authentication again in the user preferences. If you want to keep this, remove the checkmark.

Note: You can also reset the user if the data storage is encrypted. The reset user keeps access to his data.

Information on encrypting the data storage and setting up a two-factor authentication can be found in chapter User preferences under Security and Two-factor authentication.
