# Cannot change Administrator password in PUC

When you add an administrator account in the Pentaho User Console (PUC), you have two administrator passwords: the default admin password and another password for the additional administrator account. When you try to change the password for the additional administrator account, a message might appear informing you that the system cannot change the password. To resolve this issue, you must enter the password of the currently logged-in user with administrator permissions in the **Administrator password** field.
