## Password Reset Windows Application {#ariaid-title3}

The Password Reset Windows Application enables a user, who forgets the password or is locked out of a Windows computer, to reset the password directly from the Windows login screen.

### How the Password Reset Windows Application works

Download the Password Windows Reset application from the [ServiceNow Store](https://store.servicenow.com/sn_appstore_store.do#!/store/home) and run an EXE or MSI file to install or distribute the application to user computers. The application installs a link on the Windows login screen. The user clicks the link (Forgot Password? as depicted in the examples on various Windows versions) and is then guided through the process of resetting the password.

By default, when a user requests a reset, the instance sends the user a URL with a
user-specific token. After the user opens the URL, the instance prompts the user to enter and
confirm the new password. The instance does not send a temporary password.

### Restrictions on the Password Reset Windows Application {#c_PasswordResetDesktopIntegration__section_qpm_jgb_q1b}

* The Password Reset Windows Application does not support custom verifications.
* The Password Reset Windows Application uses the base-system CAPTCHA service even if the Password Reset application is configured to use Google reCAPTCHA with the web interface. See the section titled "Settings on the Details tab" in [Configure your Password Reset process](https://servicenow-prod.fluidtopics.net/DpsnYEv7NjSXPw9oWYgeFg "To implement the process, you configure credentials, verification methods and settings, and enrollment settings. You also specify to which users the process applies."). .
* The Password strength indicator is not supported. See [Configure the connection to a credential store for the Password Reset processes](https://servicenow-prod.fluidtopics.net/2FK1Y_gXVPy91vKmvWP7aw "You create a Password Reset credential store record to configure access to your credential store server while a user is changing or resetting a password. In addition to host connection information, you can specify the password hints that users should see, restrictions on password reuse, the allowed number of failed reset attempts, and other settings.").
* For some verification types, you can use only one verification. Custom verifications are not supported. See [Password Reset verifications](https://servicenow-prod.fluidtopics.net/Ls9L600FUEsllC0JKG9f~A "Each verification specifies the method and process for verifying the identity of the user that is requesting a password reset.") for details.
* Custom UI macros configured on the ProcessAdvanced page are not supported (for example, entry, success, or failure macros). The system displays only the default success and failure messages.
* The Password Reset Windows Application supports newline characters in the Password rule hint text. Other formatting is not supported (bold, underline, hyperlink, and so on). See [Configure the connection to a credential store for the Password Reset processes](https://servicenow-prod.fluidtopics.net/2FK1Y_gXVPy91vKmvWP7aw "You create a Password Reset credential store record to configure access to your credential store server while a user is changing or resetting a password. In addition to host connection information, you can specify the password hints that users should see, restrictions on password reuse, the allowed number of failed reset attempts, and other settings.").
