User changes password

Hi and thanks. My user account is called "Everybody" so I have got the command prompt running
C:\Users\Everybody>net user everybody /passwordchg:no
System error 5 has occurred.
Access is denied.

Screenshot attached.

Any ideas, guys?

Thanks

Did you run this in an elevated command prompt?

Run Command Prompt as Administrator (right click it then click "Run as Administrator"

Not a problem :) Glad you got it working. Shame Windows made you jump through so many hoops to get there, when it is so simple for Ultimate.

Anyway glad we could help
