# 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. --- # Agent Instructions: Querying This Documentation If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.
