Windows – Open “Change Your Password” window from command line

command linewindows

Is there a windows command (sent via the command line) that open the "Change Your Password" window as shown below.

Best Answer

Here are a couple things you can try.

Microsoft says that control password.cpl should work from the command line but I am not getting it in Windows 7 on a non-domain controlled computer.

Using the command start control password.cpl may also help.

Here is another command to try rundll32.exe shell32.dll,Control_RunDLL password.cpl

If those don't work, you can do it from the command line with net user [username] [newpassword]
