Hi everyone,

I recently trying out to run customization script feature on OpenStack to change adminstrator password for Windows instance. However, the script doesn't work. I have also tried out script to create and change computer name and it worked. Below are the example that I have followed:

The failed command is as below:

#ps1
net user administrator P@ssw0rd

I have also added the inject password option:

inject_user_password = true

Anyone can suggest or helps? Your guides and views are highly appreciated.

Thank you.

I assume you are trying to stick with powershell for your commands so:

ps1

$NewPassword = ConvertTo-SecureString "P@ssw0rd" -AsPlainText -Force Set-LocalUser -Name administrator -Password $NewPassword

If you were trying to do it with cmd line then: runcmd: - net user administrator P@ssw0rd
