# Reset a user's password — Google Workspace Admin console

1. In the Admin console, go to **Menu → Directory → Users**.
2. In the Users list, point to the user and click **Reset password** at the right.
3. In the **Reset password** box, select **Automatically generate a password** or **Create password**.
4. Click **Reset**.
5. Choose how to share it: click **Copy Password** then **Done**, or click **Email Password → Send**.

End state: the user's password is changed; the admin can hand it to the user directly or by email.
