I'm looking to reset passwords for around 150 users in my domain using PowerShell. Can anyone guide me on how to do this effectively? Any tips or scripts you've found helpful would be great!

It’s doable and really just depends on your requirements. I have scripts that include random password generation, or you can input temporary passwords from a file. Just test it on a test OU first and always back up your data!

If you're resetting passwords for a massive number of accounts, you might want to run a command like `Get-ADUser -Filter * -Properties * | Set-ADUser -ChangePasswordAtLogon $true -WhatIf`. Just be cautious — it's best to narrow it down to specific organizational units (OUs) first to avoid messing with service or admin accounts!

You can write a PowerShell script to do this. Just make sure to provide more details about your setup to get better advice. Are you trying to reset all users, or do you need to target specific ones?
